Rule of Thumb

[Verse 1]
Follow this rule of thumb
Enough, your acid tongue
The kingdom of fame you won
Is only for a day
So accept what you've become
One part of a greater sum
The kingdom of fame you won
Is only for a day

[Pre-Chorus]
But you're chained to
A platter of lies that connect you
And I see through
The network of friends that protect you
So remember this

[Chorus]
You can't see much
Facing the sun
Can't see much
Turning to run

[Verse 2]
So parade your new disguise
And bury your rapid rise
The hostilities begun
And set you on your way

[Pre-Chorus]
To impress you
A history of sadness and drug use
But the sad truth
A privileged past that upsets you
So remember this
Remember this

[Chorus]
You can't see much
Facing the sun
Can't see much
Turning to run
You can't see much (Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la)
Facing the sun (Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la)
Can't see much (Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la)
Turning to run (Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la)

[Outro]
Facing the sun (Facing the sun)
Turning to run (Turning to run)
Facing the sun (Facing the sun)
Turning to run (Turning to run)
Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la
Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la
Ooh, la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la
