Verison 5.5 is good but need still more improvement. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Intro] They love you most when you’re falling apart Every crack is a work of art Smile for the cameras, bleed on cue They don’t want truth — they want you consumed --- [Verse 1] SPOTLIGHT BURNS LIKE A HOLY DISEASE EYES IN THE DARK ALL STARVING TO FEED I BUILT MY NAME ON A FRACTURED VEIN NOW EVERY CHEER JUST ECHOES MY PAIN (They adore the wreckage I became…) --- [Pre-Chorus] I hear them chanting from below “Don’t let go… don’t let go…” BUT THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT IT COST ME TO GLOW --- [Chorus] Sing me an anthem as I decay Turn my collapse into your escape If I’m a god, then why do I feel Like I’m just dying for something unreal? (APPLAUSE FOR THE DYING / I’M STILL SMILING) --- [Verse 2] PLASTIC CROWNS AND A THRONE OF BONES I SOLD MY SOUL JUST TO NOT FEEL ALONE EVERY LIKE IS A KNIFE IN DISGUISE CUTTING DEEPER BEHIND MY EYES You only love me when I’m undone When I’m the villain, when I’m the one --- Say you need me — say I’m enough Even if it’s just digital love I’M JUST A BODY YOU DRESS IN FAME A PRETTY FACE WITH A BROKEN NAME --- [Chorus] Sing me an anthem as I decay Turn my collapse into your escape If I’m a god, then why do I feel Like I’m just dying for something unreal? (APPLAUSE / APPLAUSE / WATCH ME BLEED FOR YOU) --- [Breakdown] CLAP YOUR HANDS / COUNT MY SCARS TURN MY PAIN INTO YOUR STARS FEED THE FLAME / WATCH ME BREAK HOW MUCH MORE CAN I TAKE? (HOW MUCH MORE?) I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING I HAD AND ALL YOU WANTED WAS THE TRAGIC END --- [Bridge] If I disappear, would you even care? Or just replay me everywhere? A ghost in pixels, framed in light Alive forever, but dead inside THIS IS MY EXIT / THIS IS MY TRUTH --- [Final Chorus] Sing me an anthem as I decay Turn my collapse into your escape If I’m a god, then bury me deep Under the promises I couldn’t keep NO MORE MASK / NO MORE LIES JUST A LEGEND THAT SLOWLY DIES --- [Outro] They loved me most when I fell apart Every wound was their favorite part Now the silence is all I hear No more applause… no one is here
