spotlights
they're shining on everything
they make even boring seem
like it is so interesting
why is all of this so usual?
why is all of this so terrible?
i'm getting so scared that people are listening

cuz nothing i say is true
its all just a mask to hide yourself
but that is the worst excuse

so who's to blame and why
the company or the band
they lend you a helping hand
to make sure your songs are so nice and bland
why is all of this so usual?
why is all of this so terrible?
your life is for sale and you don't even recognize

cuz nothing you say is true
its all just a mask to hide yourself
but that is the worst excuse

cuz you've got a heart, a brain, a frame of mind to us 
how you like
bands are coming bands are going
with or without even knowing
what is beauty?
what is music?
what sounds good and all we've got is a brain
to keep our thoughts at bay
our legs are built to stand in place
our eyes here to look away inside
sleep all day awake

your life is for sale
to the radio pimps
that's terrible
