Lyrics
Special
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.
Surrounded by friends.
They're just feeding arrogance.
You're losing sight.
Didn't even notice that you've been alone all night.
Like they really care.
But you know they won't be there
To see you through.
They just take advantage of the better part of you.
You don't know, you don't know,
What you're saying half the time.
You're in love, you're in love
With the sound of your own voice.
Take it all, take it all
I don't need this anymore.
Go away, go away
You're not as special as you think you are.
Motivated by greed.
What a shallow life to lead.
It must be nice
getting what you want every time you roll the dice.
I'm losing respect
'cause I know you're second best
at being you.
In the middle of it all like you've got a lot to prove.
You don't know, you don't know,
What you're saying half the time.
You're in love, you're in love
With the sound of your own voice.
Take it all, take it all
I don't need this anymore.
Go away, go away
You're not as special as you think you are.
You're not as special as you think you are.
I was born this way,
and that's more than you can say.
You were never good at getting older.
You should've seen your face
when your mouth caught up with you.
You don't know, you don't know,
What you're saying half the time.
You're in love, you're just in love
With the sound of your own voice.
Take it all, take it all
I don't need this anymore.
Go away, go away
You're not as special as you think you are.
You're not as special as you think you are.
