Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Uptown, so similar, but not so similar
In her heart, how she ticks, in her men's/women's clothes
It's all so similar
All the locks, all the cheats, all the spoiled children know
[Verse 2]
I hear it's terminal, I fear it's terminal
In my head, in my chest, in my gut, on my feet
I fear it's terminal
In my head, in my chest, and the gun at my feet
[Verse 3]
It's why we're safer alone
It's how we're braver at home
We're all just paperbacks
[Verse 4]
Something dimly lights the way
Violent faith in better days
Hallelujah
Everybody knows that I am great
[Verse 5]
Something dimly lights the way
Violent faith in better days
Hallelujah
[Verse 6]
He talks subliminal, A textbook criminal
In his eyes, in his hair, in his men's/women's clothes
Sometimes invisible
He's friend, he's a thief, he's a star, he's a ghost
[Verse 7]
It's why we're safer alone
It's how we're braver at home
We're all just paperbacks
[Verse 8]
Something dimly lights the way
Violent faith in better days
Hallelujah
Everybody knows that I am great
[Verse 9]
Something dimly lights the way
Violent faith in better days
I'm Hallelujah...
[Verse 10]
Something dimly lights the way
Armor plated hell to pay
I'm inhuman…
Everybody knows that I am great
[Verse 11]
Something dimly lights the way
Armor plated hell to pay
I'm inhuman…
