"Please, Shut The Fuck Up" lyrics

"Please, Shut The Fuck Up"

Here in the broken hotel of my life
With the TV on like a fading sun on a beach
"Nobody ever comes down here anymore"
At least that's what everybody says
Come walk a mile in my shoes 'round and 'round
'Til the circles so small, you're underground for a while
With nothing left to lose but your goddamn mind
"Nobody left to laugh when the joke is your life"
At least that's what everybody says
So just shut up

Moment to moment alive in this dream
When it's channels change like the months and the days still asleep
Nobody ever thinks to check in on the creep
The party's been moved, new location
They'll just pretend like we only got old
So the colors could change from bright red into gold
Nobody ever thinks what they sold is their soul
"The spotlight looks brighter than heaven"
At least that's what everybody says
Will you shut the fuck up?

I bet that shit still feels just like love
Close your eyes, suck it up
Stairway of mirrors going straight up
Ever wonder why nobody ever comes back down after they're done?

Here in the place where I used to get paid
All the doors are closed, everybody gets laid and they cry
Something in the fine print eluded my eyes
Everybody wins 'til they're losers
Nobody ever thinks what they sold is their life
"The spotlight looks brighter than heaven"
At least that's what everybody says
Least that's what everybody says
Least that's what everybody says
Least that's what everybody says
