We could catch a cab Or stray from wheels and walk this boulevard You don't respond You're gonna end up dull Much like your parents are Hey Annalise, don't you ever feel the need to leave? That's me Scared of what you people will think Well I'm your favourite second rate singer Holding out both my hands I'm cursed with the voice of a kid And pent up three-word commands So tie the rope Tap the brake Cause a scene Whatever keeps me in control Because these bones have grown tiresome And can't seem to hold my soul My whole heart It's a joke Hey Annalise Won't you cross my mind on a stampede ride? Screw Hollywood 'Cause we've got better things to do than fake our lives But you don't respond You're gonna end up dull So won't you give up your birthright? Hey Annalise Don't you ever feel the need to leave? That's me, that's me Scared of what you people will think Well I'm alone And I want something real Not a name I just want something real I want the girl who won't disappear Oh, I can see her in dark and dull colors But coming in clear Here she comes Here she comes Here she comes And there she goes
