| [00:18.801] |
Cut it out - your self-inflicted pain |
| [00:22.523] |
is getting too routine |
| [00:24.916] |
the crowds are catching on - to the self-inflicted song |
| [00:29.423] |
Well, here we go again - the art of acting weak |
| [00:34.744] |
Fall in love to fail - to boost your CD sales |
| [00:41.378] |
And that CD sells - yeah, what a hit |
| [00:44.566] |
You've got to repeat it |
| [00:46.427] |
you gotta' sink to swim |
| [00:47.761] |
|
| [00:48.281] |
If at first you don't succeed |
| [00:49.628] |
you gotta recreate your misery |
| [00:52.815] |
'cause we all know art is hard |
| [00:55.475] |
young artists have gotta starve |
| [00:56.541] |
Try, and fail, and try again |
| [00:58.655] |
the comforts of repetition |
| [01:01.048] |
Keep churning out those hits |
| [01:02.908] |
'til it's all the same old shit |
| [01:05.304] |
|
| [01:14.063] |
Oh, a second verse! |
| [01:15.924] |
Well, color me fatigued |
| [01:18.585] |
I'm hiding in the leaves |
| [01:20.710] |
in the CD jacket sleeves |
| [01:23.093] |
tired of entertaining |
| [01:25.490] |
some double-dipped meaning |
| [01:27.612] |
a soft serve analogy |
| [01:31.603] |
This drunken angry slur |
| [01:32.657] |
in thirty-one flavors |
| [01:45.671] |
You gotta' sink to swim |
| [01:46.737] |
immerse yourself in rejection |
| [01:48.064] |
regurgitate some sorry tale |
| [01:50.192] |
about a boy who sells his love affairs |
| [01:53.381] |
You gotta' fake the pain |
| [01:55.245] |
you better make it sting |
| [01:57.624] |
you're gonna' break a leg |
| [01:59.220] |
when you get on stage |
| [02:01.350] |
and they scream your name |
| [02:09.312] |
"Oh, Cursive is so cool!" |
| [02:10.910] |
|
| [02:11.439] |
You gotta sink to swim |
| [02:13.036] |
impersonate greater persons |
| [02:15.428] |
'cause we all know art is hard |
| [02:17.555] |
when we don't know who we are |
