Warm Glows And White Lies

they found out where you like to hide

dream of centre stage at sell out shows

your name in lights

these words are not enough tonight

you're in way too deep

so keep repeating favourite lines

they're not long shots

if you believe enough

so come on hot-shot

show us what you've got

in the heart department

i hope you've got the guts

with your hood up over your head

and the hair on the back of your neck on end

with your brand new converse

torn at the seams

turn your headphones up

can you hear me

from the backseat to your bedroom wall

where you lean to make those late-night calls

and say your falling

high hopes for warm glows and white lies

you press hard on keys to make us believe

you're still alive

they're not long shots

if you believe enough

so come on hot-shot

you made us want to believe in everything you say

you know a little over-acting goes a long long way

your hero's never gonna save you coz it's way too late

so just scream out my name
