Type out a message with two thumbs for me, oh
No use for talk, no use for tongue
All this pretending’s wringing me out dry
I pay for it when I don’t sleep at night
Running around the block
All the lights are off
Left with nothing to show Can all the illusion talk? Make you feel in love?
Burned out begging for more
I don’t want your fake fame
Got lost for the high
And I don’t want your fake fame
Feel out of my mind
I don’t want your fake fame, don’t want your fake fame I don’t want your fake, fa-fa-fame
Don’t want your fake fame
I want your fake fame
Rent your life and buy a friend for sale
Gonna make you something, make you someone else
Kill your soul for nothin, blood and bone
I’m verified, but 3:00am alone
Running around the block
All the lights are off
Left with nothing to show Can all the illusion talk? Make you feel in love?
Burned out begging for more
I don’t want your fake fame
Got lost for the high
And I don’t want your fake fame
Feel out of my mind
Don’t want your fake fame
Don’t want your fa-fa-fa-fame
Give me something to love Give me, give me
I want your fake fame
Ooh got lost for the high And I,
I feel out of my mind
I don’t want your fake fame
Don’t want your fake fame
I don’t want your fake fa-fame
Don’t want your fa-fa-fa-fame
Give me something to love Give me, give me
Give me fake fame!

Life Goes By And I Can’t Keep Up
Oh life goes by every single day
And I can’t keep up
Oh na-na-na
We’re almost back home from the weekend
I wish we could keep driving
‘Cause tomorrow I’ll be waking up to my problems ooh ooh
Day dream at work, the smell of smoke on my sweater
Oh life goes by every single day And I can’t keep up
Oh na-na-na
The years go by and I’m stumbling oh I don’t know where all the time’s gone
And I tell you that in my heart I feel like I just left high school
Stuck paying bills, searching for love, feel like I’m losing
Oh life goes by every single day
And I can’t keep up
Oh na-na-na
Never forget when the news came in
Tears flowed down like rivers
Interrupted by how permanent this life is
When I’m hurting, the world gets smaller and smaller
All this time
Year after year
The lessons I’ve learned have brought me to tears
The meaningless work
The traffic and cars
The movies I’ve watched
The drinks in the bars
Oh life goes by every single day
And I can’t keep up
Oh na-na-na
