you make quite a lot for yourself
  one better than you drowns
  but it's weighing down
  the sides of your mouth
  to an appearing frown
  there's more to add
  than in my doubts
    sharpen your overacting skills
  to cut through the tension
  mark your words
  with confidence
  selective attention
    try and steady yourself
  but with one hand down
  losing balance
  take a look at your hometown
  you're a different person now
  only one who hasn't changed
  only one who's stayed the same
    sharpen your overacting skills
  to cut through the tension
  mark your words
  with confidence
  selective attention
    we get
  our points
  to appreciate the life you lead
  don't rush the days you'll
  wish they stayed for one year later
    it's a tragic case of bad taste
  but it's all concerning you
  who truly can appreciate the
  mess you've made
    sharpen your overacting skills
  to cut through the tension
  mark your words
  with confidence
  selective attention
