Lyrics
Strings
I'm the star of a book you wrote before
Your career was illustrious
Though only renters and college kids skimmed through
Skipped through to the end to see if you
Got help from someone there up on high
Who may have heard the beacon's faint cry:
"I could do things for you, I can do things for you"
All the reasons I always dreamed of school
I just dropped out and left them there
It was always the fabulous stain on
On my reputation for opening doors
And selling arts and crafts from the floor
Lately I notice much no more
We've been waiting for you
We've been waiting for you
I'm not like you, I'm done restating
Teen beat fears of bright lights fading
You learn to wean yourself off of it
[I'm not like you, I'm done restating
Teen beat fears of bright lights fading]
You learn to wean yourself off of it
Did some orphan's lament get heard one night
Pinball through moons and time
