lyrics

The Most Convincing Fake
Oh, yeah, the common thing, defective family –
Where little less to talk about means little less to disagree

You wanna get it right, you wanna get it on
Despite they don´t think much of you you wanna try and prove `em wrong, ye ye

The story has been told about a million times
You wanna add a little reason, wanna add a little rhyme

So go improve yourself – until it´s meaningless
Enjoy the pats upon your back while turnin´ into someone else, ye ye

It hit you right on after the news –
Out oft he little variantions you got little left to choose
Now monochrome days fade into grey
Just like fireworks in black to salute mediocrity

Can´t skip between scenes
You always know you gonna drown in routines
Waitin´ to be replaced you better end up as the most convincing fake

It hit you right on after the news
Out of the little variations you got little left to choose
It bends you right on over and round
To see you´re never gettin´ nowhere in this goddamn fucked up town

It hit you right on after the news
Out of the little variations you´ve got little left to choose
Now monochrome days fade into grey
Just like fireworks in black to salute mediocity

Oh yeah, the common thing, defective family
Where little less to talk about means little less to disagree
You wanna get it right, you wanna get it on
Despite they don´t think much of you you wanna try to prove them wrong

Can´t skip between scenes
You alwways know you gonna drown in routines
Waitin´ to be replaced you better end up as the most convincing fake -
Waitin´ to be replaced you better end up as the most convincing fake
