Shivers down their spines,
With every chord you hit,
You can make a crowd forget.
And they swear,
That when you sing . your words .
Its as sacred as birth
[Chorus]
The lies you wrote . have become . anthems,
How they mend their broken hearts.
And the lines . you stole . from story books,
That choke in your voice .
How it sells them every word of it.
We have heard . that with a little work,
Your cathartic verse,
Will rid all the pain from earth.
Scream your words . in their cars.
And help them figure out who they really are,
And to blame their fathers.
[Chorus]
The lies you wrote . have become . anthems,
How they mend their broken hearts.
And the lines . you stole . from story books,
That choke in your voice .
How it sells them every word of it.
Can . this pull . up the anchor.
So . you can . drift away.
Say something . you honestly . honestly mean, but
You will never let it.
'Cause you're a hit in shopping malls,
You're the shit that makes us all want to quit.
'Cause you're a hit in shopping malls,
You're the shit that makes us all want to quit
