All we are is entertainment caught up in our own derangement

Tell us what to say and what to do

All we are are pretty faces, picture perfect bottled rage

Packaged, synthesized versions of you We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life

Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms

They all scream California and it's toppling empire

But can't you see the end is coming soon? Come one, come all, the new sensations guarantees then obligations

Spotlights follow every single move

Basking here on ten foot stages, pouty lips and oh so jaded

All as if we have something to prove Despite these petty fortunes we still can't afford a life

Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms

They all scream California and it's toppling empire

But can't you see the end is near? And if we cared at all about this unknown plight

Then we'd do something more to finally make this right Is this only entertainment? Pull the curtains, places please

We learned to sing and dance and cry on cue

But this is more than entertainment in a world so sick with pain

This is the only thing that's real or true We've all made petty fortunes but we can't afford a life

Confined to pull out quotes in hotel rooms

They all scream bloody murder over graves already dug

But can't you see the end?
