The Lighting
Five Times August

We are innocent for everything that's wrongnYou make statements with your words in every songnAnd you can act for every cameranBut you know that's not the answernWhen you only give if someone seems to looknnAnd we keep falling for the words you have to saynNever questioning your million dollar daysnAnd they can put you on every magazinenTo show off your celebritynBut have you really ever made a change?nn'Cause we are workingnAnd we are fightingnWhile you are living nIn the lightingnnSo maybe this is how you've always beennAlways searching for a way to grad attentionnYou can pose for every picturenAnd drink up every mixturenAs you're paid to show your face in busy placesnnBut we are workingnAnd we are fightingnAnd we are searchingnWithout the lightingnnAnd I know I'm not that perfectnBut at least I know what love isnAnd if I could I'd give a hand to every mann'Cause I'm lucky just to be herenThat's the way I see it clearnBut you complainn'Cause you're so vainnnBut we are workingnAnd we are fightingnWhile you are livingnIn the lightingnnWe are working (we are working)nAnd we are fighting (we are fighting)nWhile you are living (you are living)nIn the lighting (in the lie – in the lie – in the lighting)nnSo we will cheer you all the way across the fieldnAnd we will listen to your music just to feelnAnd we will see you at the moviesnWhile the money keeps you movingnBut your celebrity has never made a change
