lyrics

The shots I took were overexposed
The moments were lost, the images cold
Down to the last drop of youth
The fountain's a mountain of 90 proof

A baton in hand
I'm calling the tune
The ballad of loving the life I wish I knew
Down to the wire
Everyone's plugged in
The situation's dire
Nobody can win

So who am I to make believe
It's all part of the show
Don't you know everyone is a modern day maestro
Go, strike a pose
You're dying to know
Who's looking at you

I sit idly by
Breathing in the smoke
They're blowing through filters
Have another toke
Down on my luck
It's never enough
I'm hoping any moment they'll call my bluff
So who am I to make believe

You want to be better than every sad soul you see
Like your insecurities look better on me
