lyrics

Dancing in a selfish act.
They’re all waiting for the chorus to drop.
Oh precious one, an echo of a bright star.
An echo of great.
Hey, for what it’s worth, I’m down on the ground trying to keep it top shelf.
Trying to keep it all afloat.
 Yeah, it’s dangerous.
Now repeat after me.
 The worst is to come, when art is playing it safe.
When it follows the crowd and it’s copied and paste.
 Hey, let’s shake everything.
Let’s move heaven and earth.
Let’s fly too close to the sun.
There’s so much more I could say.
