You sacrifice your genius on the altar of ambition
Completely unaccountable for whatever you may do
You fake the unintentional to fit your disposition
Painfully unreliable in whatever you pursue
Put it all in a line, then knock it over
Wrapped up in adulation, you better take a bow
Do the math, seems the lines keep getting shorter
Smothered in agitation, playing the villain now
Here comes the thunder, crashing in
Dragging you under, down, again
Here comes the thunder, crashing in
Seizing the wonder, let the end begin
Improvising failed attempts at cutting down the dosage
Meanwhile, your own family is taking you to court
Yesterday's convenient lies are still paying your mortgage
Rock 'n' roll's not suicide, it's life support
Put it all in a line, then knock it over
Wrapped up in adulation, you better take a bow
Do the math, seems the lines keep getting shorter
Smothered in agitation, playing the villain now
Put it all in a line, then knock it over
Wrapped up in adulation, you better take a bow
Do the math, seems the lines keep getting shorter
Smothered in agitation, playing the villain now
Here comes the thunder, crashing in
Dragging you under, down, again
Here comes the thunder, crashing in
Seizing the wonder, let the end begin
