Songs when the truth are all dedicated to you
In this invisible world I choose to live in
And if you believe that now I understand
Why words mean so much to you, theyâll never be about you
Maybe youâre young without youth
Or maybe youâre old without knowing anything true
I think youâre young without youth
Then you contract the American dream, you never look up once
Youâve contracted American dreams,I require you to stop and look up
Sing a song about myself, keep singing the song about myself
Not some invisible world
Constantly searching to find something new
But what will you find when you think that nothingâs true?
Maybe itâs that nothing is new
So you let me hear songs that were written all about you
The good songs werenât written for you, theyâll never be about you
Then you contract the American dream, you never look up once
Youâve contracted American dreams, you never look up once,
so donât look up
Sing a song about myself, keep singing the song about myself
Not some invisible world
Sing a song about myself, keep singing a song about myself
Not some invisible world
And I wonât tell you what this means, âcause youâll already know
And I wonât tell you what this means, âcause you already know
So sing a song about myself, keep singing the song about myself
Not some invisible world
And you came along and found the weak spot,
but youâve always wanted
And let yourself be everything, that youâve always wanted
It doesnât have to be so decided, youâve always wanted
And no need for explanations, that youâve always wanted
Youâll find what you find when you find thereâs nothing
And youâll find what you find when you find thereâs nothing
