Lyrics
Here Is No Why
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The useless drag of another day
The endless drags of a death rock boy
Mascara sure and lipstick lost
Glitter burned by restless thoughts
Of being forgotten
And in your sad machines
You'll forever stay
Desperate and displeased
With whoever you are
And you're a star
Somwhere he pulls his hair down
Over a frowning smile
A hidden diamond you cannot find
A secret star that cannot shine
Over to you
May the king of gloom
Be forever doomed
And in your sad machines
You'll forever stay
Burning up in speed
Lost inside the dreams
Of teen machines
The useless drags, the empty days
The lonely towers of long mistakes
To forgotten faces and faded loves
Sitting still was never enough
And if you're giving in
Then your giving up
Cause in your sad machines
You'll forever stay
Burning up in speed
Lost inside the dreams
Of teen machines
