The Scene

City lights, big dreams,
hipster beanies, gilded scene.
Rolling out your PRS
pretty like a party dress.
It has the name on it, shine to it, flair to it,
keeping up appearances,
makes you cooler when you play it.
Verse two, here we go,
What's the lyrics, I don't know,
Guess I'll just repeat the first
till I write the second verse
You've got the name on it, shine to it, flair to it,
Keep up those appearances
Makes you cool when you play it
Shark in the water
Crusin' for a kill
Say a prayer he'll let you go,
but this one never will.
Knock me down from the ladder,
tell me all of your lies.
Pull the rug out from under and
cut me down to size.
You don't know this kind of hunger, I'm just starving inside
I'm kinda over it
Over this game
You keep breakin' me down just to light me up again
Here comes a suit with all the answers, all your treasures.
Hand over all your money, he'll answer all your prayers.
He'll shake your hand with the right,
Don't watch the left, fingers crossed behind,
It's junk, lies, theft.
Shark in the water
crusin' for a kill.
Say a prayer he'll let you go,
but this one never will
knock me down from the ladder,
tell me all of your lies.
Pull the rug out from under and
cut me down to size.
You don't know this kind of hunger,
I'm just starving inside
I'm kinda over it
Over this game
You keep breakin' me down just to light me up again
[instrumental]
Last time:
Knock me down from the ladder,
Tell me all of your lies
Pull the rug out from under and
Cut me down to size.
You don't know this kind of hunger, I'm just starving inside
I'm kinda over it
Over this game
I'm so over it, I'm over this game
I'm really over it, I'm over this game
You keep breakin' me down just to light me up again
