On Sunday March 19th, Father John Misty dropped a trio of “Generic Pop Songs”. Seemingly released ironically, these songs parody many tropes commonly found in contemporary popular music.

Generic Pop Song #9 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Out on the edge, feels like the middle
Like the middle of a prayer
Don't need a prayer, baby who's asking?
It's mercy when you calling me
Anywhere I go, somewhere this love's already seen
Here we are, a little lower than the angels
Higher than an afterglow
Dancing with the devils, asking where the time go
Dancing on the grave of all my beloved souls

[Bridge]
And if I seem a little careless
It's cause we burn a little brighter than the rest

[Chorus]
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
I'm not going out 'til the whole world's shouting like
Damn, that girl is crazy but I know what she's about
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
I'm not going out 'til the whole world's shouting back
Damn, this girl is crazy but it's me she's singing about
Oh, I don't need to be forgiven
Oh, the way I'm living

[Verse 2]
Hands up, everything is free now
Burning up, ashes on the ceiling cause
Cause I'm not leaving nothing
But a legend and a feeling for one person or a million
Just a lobby on the building

[Bridge]
And if I seem a little careless
It's cause I burn a little brighter than the rest

[Chorus]
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
Brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
I'm not going out 'til the whole world's shouting like
Damn, that girl is crazy but I know what she's about
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
Oh, brighter than we burn, brighter than we burn, brighter than
I'm not going out 'til the whole world's shouting like
Damn, this girl is crazy but it's me she's singing about
Oh, I don't need to be forgiven
Oh, the way I'm living

[Outro]
I'm not going out, going out, not going out
I'm not going out, going out, not going out
I'm not going out 'til the whole world's shouting like
I'm not going out 'til the whole world's shouting like
I'm not going out, going out, not going out
I'm not going out, going out, not going out
I'm not going out 'til the whole world shouting like
I'm not going out 'til the whole world shouting like
