You see the pictures in the magazine Wishin' that your life was that interesting Material things in your twisted soul Don't hold your breath because you just might blow You spend an hour on your f**in' hair But you don't know that nobody really cares You're shallow oh oh You're shallow oh oh You set me up To knock me down You'd rather see Me on the ground The night is young But you're played out So I'm going home Yeah I'm goin' home You watch your stories on the TV screen Reality's become your favorite thing Take a good look at your delusional mind
So inescure you're scared of what you'll find You cover up the lines that show on your face The others up your nose for fictional grace You're shallow oh oh You're shallow oh oh You set me up To knock me down You'd rather see Me on the ground The night is young But you're played out So I'm going home Yeah I'm goin' home Lay me out tonight Lay me down, alright Lay me out tonight I'm comin' home Yeah You set me up To knock me down You'd rather see Me on the ground The night is young But you're played out So I'm going home Yeah I'm goin' home
