You're Not Special
Where to begin？
In this wicked world
There's a million others just like you
Yeah, hey
You talk too much
You're all out of touch
猿回しの猿になれない存在
You talk too much
You're all out of touch
猿回しの猿になれない存在
Yeah, it's anything goes
When you're forced to create while advancing on tip-toes
Actually worthless
Got no purpose
They'll replace you, deface all your work
It's the point of "you'll never return from this"
Learn from us
No rebuilding the bridges that burned for us
Getting superfluous, smiles and waves
The praise in abundance to make sure you stay
So the story goes "you're the one"
They'll remember
Lie, call it "labors of love"
Why put in the effort？
'Cause you're not special, none of us are
Even those plagued by stardom fade into dust
Nothing matters
Who the hell else should I be？
A puppet, a pawn, if I fail, I'm gone
So everyone else can be happy
With no question, I fall in line
Believing promises every time
Soldier onward, spare me your honesty
'Cause I know my place now
A washed out prophecy
Out of sight, out of mind
We'll never see the same view
Got so lost, so exhausted, but you can't give in
Catch on fire, you're admired
Forget the ones who saved you
There's no bias, the noblest never win
So we close our eyes and pretend that this might mend
Right, just a means to an end
Why put up a fight, then？
'Cause you're not special, none of us are
Even those plagued by stardom fade into dust
Nothing matters
How much more love can I spend？
A puppet, a pawn, if I fail, I'm gone
So everyone fallen can ascend？
With no question, I fall in line
And play my part so the chosen shine
Persona non grata, better left out of the sun
'Cause I know my place now, ah
Those watching raise a glass
To the bad news come to pass
A million eyes demand an encore 'till the very last
Reach out to find my whereabouts, my own way
Each moment passing is a debt I gotta pay
Right now, just look me in the eyes
It's time they realize
The mountaintop means nothing 'f you don't gotta climb (ya, ya, ya, come on)
Survive
Want me on your front lines
So you can have what's mine
So you can take and when it's over, leave nothing behind
So the story goes "you're the one"
They'll remember
Lie, call it "labors of love"
Why put in the effort？
'Cause you're not special, none of us are
Even those plagued by stardom fade into dust
Nothing matters
Who the hell else should I be？
A puppet, a pawn, if I fail, I'm gone
So everyone else can be happy
With no question, I fall in line
Believing promises every time
Soldier onward, spare me your honesty
'Cause I know my place now
A washed out prophecy
