lyrics

You have no reason to believe a single thing I say
Silver dripping from my tongue
I mean to take you’re breath away

The echo chamber I live in
is window shopping for meaning
We’ll wind up chasing loneliness

Oh, I'm not your candidate
Every word inside my mouth is overrated
I'll rain on your parade
Oh, I'm not your candidate
You pump me up and I don't stay inflated
I'll try to fly away

I’m a kind of lunatic aboard
A ship of hope that’s going down

You have no reason to believe, don’t trust, a single thing I say
Cause the truth is on the run
And we’re just living out the dream

The echo chamber I live in
is window shopping for meaning
We’ll wind up chasing loneliness

Oh, I'm not your candidate
Every word inside my mouth is overrated
I'll rain on your parade
Oh, I'm not your candidate
You pump me up and I don't stay inflated
I'll try to fly away
