STARTING LINE LYRICS - Selective

"Selective"



You’ve made quite a life for yourself

one better than you’ve dreamt

but it's weighing down

the sides of your mouth

to an appearing frown

there's more to it

than it might sound



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



Make it a point 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
