lyrics
Eye for an eye as we stand by and watch
As the world goes blind
It really blows my mind
I saw the sky open up hoping love
won't be left behind
Forsaking human kind
I watched the world pass me by as AI
Says I am to blame
That they forgot my name
Chorus
After all the rock stars let you down
Every hero leaves the underground
Keep your eyes upon the prize
It that's what you want
That's what you want
After all the angels burn their wings
On a melody the devil sings
Keep your eyes upon the prize
It that's what you want
That's what you want
I used to be such a serious man
'Til I laughed it off
Oh what a thing to pull off
I want no more of this boring existence
I'm moving on
Oh won't you come along
Chorus
Outro
Oh looking over...
Don't try and save us
We'll never be famous
Don't try and save us
We'll never be famous
Don't try to save us
We'll never be famous
