everything you say sound like a lie
everything you say and i know why
'cause you say it with your mouth and not your eyes
and i cant tell if you even realize
this is not the slow dance you fantasized
it never was
i am not the person in your head
but i was still created for a test
the variables tell me how to act
and sing and dance
and cry and scream
and laugh
to be a human in your arms, at that
is that so bad?
and when you see me on the big screen
on the TV
are you looking at me?
watching
looking closely
pay attention
i'm your favorite movie
when you know the script like
it's your own life
you can mouth the words
and when you say you love me
do you mean it?
'cause you sound so unsure lately
lately
all the ratings
they've been falling
'cause the acting's getting lazy
unrealistic
'cause the actor is distracted
i am not against a change of faith
but i know that you know that i'm too weak
to do it all again
this stupid song
and coordinated nation sweeping dance
at the very least i had a chance
can we stay friends
and when you see me on the big screen
on the TV
are you looking at me?
watching
looking closely
pay attention
i'm your favorite movie
when you know the script like
it's your own life
you can mouth the words
and when you say you love me
do you mean it?
'cause you sound so unsure lately
lately
all the ratings
they've been falling
'cause the acting's getting lazy
unrealistic
'cause the actor is distracted
tell me
do you want me?
do you think i'm worth your time?
oh please just tell me
maybe someday isn't as far away as it seems
or maybe it lives in my dreams
tell me
do you want me?
do you think i'm worth your time?
oh please just tell me
maybe someday isn't as far away as it seems
or maybe it lives in my dreams
tell me
do you love me?
if you mean it
live your life
and if that means that you're not a soulmate
you're a best friend
i guess that's alright with me
but god
my heart hurts as it beats
oh
and when you see me on the big screen
on the TV
are you looking at me?
watching
looking closely
pay attention
i'm your favorite movie
when you know the script like
it's your own life
you can mouth the words
and when you say you love me
do you mean it?
'cause you sound so unsure lately
lately
all the ratings
they've been falling
'cause the acting's getting lazy
unrealistic
'cause the actor is addicted

[Verse 1]
The city's on the edge of overflowing
Cause' you know it's the place where everybody puts their money, aspirations, and rage
And aspirations aspirate in anesthetic suffocation
Don't come here for your vacation
Don't come here at all
Some people take this sentiment like staking the heart
But others recognize the dichotomy of being in charge
So what's the prey to do when they've been pushed too far?
Don't give justification
Don't say anything at all
[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like a freak
I'm paranoid, I sleep with one eye open every week
And I don't rest in peace until my shadow turns to leaves
Cause' autumn is the sunset of the era that I breathe
[Verse 2]
It takes 45 minutes to appear in any place
Within the range of your escape
From the mundanity of Marietta
We're all experts on making the rain look away
It won't come for the occasion, or anything at all
It's a shame the things we say behind your back
I hope the sun still hits the spots the dark attacks
It's a place I barely go, it feels so bad
I wanna blow it up, I know better than that
[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like a freak
I wanna be a seeker missile guided by the heat
Oh I can't take a milligram of something that I need
Oh I can't take a milligram of something that I need
Just seek me out
[Bridge]
Oh, hunt me down
Take my coordinates
You know I wanted everything I want before this
It's been a long time
I've been a target
Just hit me, like you want it
Yeah
[Chorus]
Sometimes I feel like a freak
I'm paranoid, I sleep with one eye open every week
And I don't rest in peace until my shadow turns to leaves
Cause' autumn is the sunset of the era that I breathe
Sometimes I feel like a freak
I wanna be a seeker missile guided by the heat
Oh I can't take a milligram of something that I need
Oh I can't take a milligram of something that I need
Tell me 'bout it
[Outro]
It's a shame the things we say behind your back
I hope the sun still hits the spots the dark attacks
It's a place I barely go, it feels so bad
I wanna fucking blow it up
Just seek me out
Just seek me out
Just seek me out
Just seek me out
Just seek me
