You were the first in flight

Now a modern relic

Nearly a payphone on a 1 AM sidewalk

We're all cast aside

And we're antiquated

Right as we start to finally figure out what we are

Look at you so bright

State of the art

You're new, you're young, your blissful ignorance

Is everything they like

But the years have teeth

And sometimes they bite (sometimes they bite)

Look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

Now, do you see that smile

At the foot of the ladder?

Ain't it familiar that was you only yesterday?

But this justice feels

More like a poison apple

And inevitably everyone will bite into it

Now look at you so bright

State of the art

You're new, you're young, your blissful ignorance

Is everything they like

But the years have teeth

And sometimes they bite

Look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

(State of the art)

I'm falling

I'm falling apart, oh

The state of

The state of the art

Look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

Look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

State of the art

State of the art

Look at you so bright

State of the art
