Songs when the truth are all dedicated to you

In this invisible world I choose to live in

And if you believe that now I understand

Why words mean so much to you, they'll never be about you

Maybe you're young without youth

Or maybe you're old without knowing anything true

I think you're young without youth

Then you contract the American dream, you never look up once

You've contracted American dreams,I require you to stop and look up

Sing a song about myself, keep singing the song about myself

Not some invisible world

Constantly searching to find something new

But what will you find when you think that nothing's true?

Maybe it's that nothing is new

So you let me hear songs that were written all about you

The good songs weren't written for you, they'll never be about you

Then you contract the American dream, you never look up once

You've contracted American dreams, you never look up once,

so don't look up

Sing a song about myself, keep singing the song about myself

Not some invisible world

Sing a song about myself, keep singing a song about myself

Not some invisible world

And I won't tell you what this means, 'cause you'll already know

And I won't tell you what this means, 'cause you already know

So sing a song about myself, keep singing the song about myself

Not some invisible world

And you came along and found the weak spot,

but you've always wanted

And let yourself be everything, that you've always wanted

It doesn't have to be so decided, you've always wanted

And no need for explanations, that you've always wanted

You'll find what you find when you find there's nothing

And you'll find what you find when you find there's nothing
