You, moth to flame for coat tails you can ride
Use the guise of empathy
Do your rehearsed shock and slur yourself to sleep
Receive your sympathy
Cuffs on uptempo
Real tough naive
Everyone yelling
Lucky once vowed ease
You pulled the pin and then ran fast to hide
Used your pre-planned alibi

Cuffs on uptempo
Real tough naive
Everyone yelling
Lucky once vowed ease
You'll live through this as the timing was just right
You'll just have to wait a bit
Do you hear the fame you craved for all of it?
Finally got your first big hit
Cuffs on uptempo
Real tough naive
Everyone yelling
Lucky once vowed ease
