lyrics

This is like when you turn the water too hot
And step in before it reaches its peak
Little by little it starts to burn you
And you have to back off on the heat

And I'm jaded, green with envy
Of your ability to breathe in the steam
So cynical, life ain't so beautiful
When you're in a love-hate relationship with something you feel

Cuz I just make up everything that I'm feeling
And you're trying to make it up to me
I wish it were as if I had no problem
And I wish it were as if you had no need

I'm not exactly sure that I like what I'm seeing
And I'm not exactly sure that you disagree
I guess the point here that I've been making
Is you've got to have fun if you wanna be free

Synthesizers killed the rock 'n' roll star
Synthesizers killed the rock 'n' roll star
Synthesizers killed the rock 'n' roll star
Tried telling the truth but got caught up in the lie

I am lying when I say I love you
I am lying when I say I love you
