Burning Out in Style Songtext / Lyric

Anyone can be the one that you want
You only have to see it through
Until you feel indifference
Take a wife, a child, a family name
File them under Johnson, Doe, Smith, or boring
There's still condos in simple-town to settle down
On a wing and a smile, you go out in style
You're going out in style
As long as you look the part
Above your empty heart
You're not as you appear,
They're not as they appear
Appearances are made on Saturdays Lessons come from gunfights
Late nights and courtesies
Anyone can define where you are
Choking on elixirs, mixers, and caviar
But I'm not getting through to you in a song
On a wing and a smile, you go out in style
You're going out in style
As long as you look the part
Above your weary heart
It's not as it appears,
You're not as you appear But I'm not getting through to you in a song
On your way up the hill,
I thought you wouldn't fail
I thought you couldn't fail
They look good from afar In that shiny car
They're not as they appear
It's not as it appears
Hanging out in tribes
In superstitions we subscribe
Bat habits in denial. Good times!
So bright...
Now you're burning out in style
