Wound so tightly I'm the window sill Bending backwards And then backwards again Chasing tales Round and round until The party's over And we've emptied out the world We'll stop believin' The lies we tell ourselves And no more building Prisons in our heads Listen no more someday No lottery of fame No more fake smilin' And no more flat champagne And no more thinking I won a race I wish I'd lost Bound by the rest We tell ourselves that we'll get over this Hittin' the stand Cause we were busy making plans Listen no more MTV and magazines Wanna start livin' my own Reality dream I wanna see it I wanna be it I wanna taste it all Bound by the rest We tell ourselves that we'll get over this Hittin' the stand Cause we were busy making plans Bound by the rest We tell ourselves that we'll get over this Hittin' the stand Cause we were busy making plans And cause all we want is to give Our hearts to someone else Love that is everlasting The kind of love Hollywood sells And the happy ending Well it's all we really ask Don't spend your life pretending Your happy end already passed
