A beat-down accusation
 To a once relaxed sensation
 A fool comes just as phony
 As the world it believes around

 Yet as I fret, I won't forget
 That my heroes never listened
 to the words held all around us that are
 Strictly for the birds
 That feed on the fake

 Can't the world see?
 Those who stand alone
 Don't know what to take

 Can't the world see like me?

 The Only Thing he cares about
 Has left him out to dry
 A line for every broken time
 Is what he had to try

 Yet as I fret, I won't forget
 That my heroes never listened
 To the words held all around us that are
 Strictly for the birds
 That feed on the fake

 Can't the world see?
 Those who stand alone
 Don't know what to take

 Can't the world see like me?

 Strictly for the birds
 That feed on the fake

 Those who stand alone
 Don't know what to take

 Strictly for the birds
 That feed on the fake

 Those who stand alone
 Don't know what to take

 Can't the world see?
