Overused

this is the new me
walking down an empty street
living for what's supposed to be
no need to save a seat

let me tell you something now
they lied to you, i'm sure
made you want to get out
empty tales, empty lure

empty as everything before

left without essence
cold and in pain
red-hot effervescence starting now
this is where we could have lain

check me out, pull me through
let's start this game anew
take me here, leave me there
quite enough of me to share

whoever said it's fair?

makes you wonder, nowadays
hold - i lost my phrase
sin and other boring things
can't quite stop eternal swings

take it from here, if you want
beware, we have been shunned
make them want their future back
give them again what they lack

i hereby resign my post
shall go away to other coasts
continue things as they are
i don't think i need to go that far.
