Lyrics

Bow Out

[Verse 1: REEN]

I call your bluff

Quick change of story

The truth is also boring

It's not enough

You gotta feed the rumour mill

In for the [?]

You're puttin' quite a show

But you know it's getting old

[Chorus: REEN]

You can fake the fame

Play the game

We don't give a fuck, you know

Out of sight, out of spite

Gets you out of luck to know

[?]

Better [?] bow out

[?] bow out

[Post-Chorus: REEN]

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na na na na

[Verse 2: REEN]

You talk too much

Bring a knife to a gun fight

Gotta play your cards right

It's enough

Gotta kill the rumour mill

In for the thrill

[Chorus: REEN & FiNCH ASOZiAL]

You can fake the fame

Play the game

We don't give a fuck, you know

Out of sight, out of spite

Gets you out of luck to know

[?]

Better [?] bow out (Yeah)

[?] bow out

[Verse 3: FiNCH ASOZiAL]

Living in a dream, sie leben in 'ner Scheinwelt

Doch willst du was von ihn'n (Yeah), fehlt dir meist das Kleingeld

Was bring'n dir deine Klicks, deine Instagram-Likes?

Wenn du live nicht mal 'nen Bruchteil deiner Fanbase mitreißt

Bist geblendet vom Hype, mh-mhm, ja du willst es

Ein leeres Fass wird lauter, als ein gefülltes

[Pre-Chorus: REEN]

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na na na na

[Chorus: REEN]

You can fake the fame

Play the game

We don't give a fuck, you know

Out of sight, out of spite

Gets you out of luck to know

[?]

Better [?] bow out (Na na na na na na)

[?] bow out

[Post-Chorus: REEN]

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

Na na na, na na na

Na na na na na na

[Outro: REEN]
