Songs when they're true are all dedicated to you,
and this invisible world i choose to live in.
and if you believe that then now i understand
why words mean so much to you:
'cause they'll never be about you.
And maybe you're young without youth,
or maybe you're old without knowing anything's true,
i think you're young without youth.
Then you contract the american dream
you never look up once.
and you've contracted american dreams,
i require you to stop and look up.
Sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world
Constantly searching to find something new,
but what will you find when you think that nothing's true?
maybe it's that nothing is new.
so you let me hear songs that were written all about you
the good songs weren't written for you,
they'll never be about you.
Then you contract the american dream
you never look up once.
and you've contracted american dreams,
you never look up once, so dont look up.
Sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world.
Sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself,
not some invisible world.
And i won't tell you what this means
'cause you already know
and i won't tell you what this means
'cause you already know
So sing a song about myself
keep singing a song about myself, (repeat to end)
not some invisible world.
You came along and found the weak spot
that you always wanted
let yourself be everything
that you've always wanted
it doesn't have to be so decided
but you've always wanted
no need for explanations
you've always wanted
You'll find what you'll find when you find there's nothing.
you'll find what you'll find when you find there's nothing.
