In the real world

All that gold

All that silver prove

Is that the powerful own the truth

With their Heckle and Jeckyll smiles

Down to nickels and dimes

The lawyers will sue

What those bastards won't do

But sometimes with you

I can leave this place

And fall into your sky

And sometimes with you

I can lose myself

Without an alibi

Salvation and clues

I get from you

And I shoot out the lights

In a room with a view

Bought and paid for

With the price of my tears

Na na na na na na na yeah

On the TV

There's a sitcom about success

About winning and nothing less

Little Caesars with suits and ties

With their dollar sign eyes

Canned laughter and lies

They're everything I despise

But sometimes with you

I can fall into your sky

And I can fade

And sometimes with you

I can leave myself

And join in your parade

Salvation and clues

Are the things I want

The things I get from you

Sometimes I withdraw

With the echo of you

Inside of myself

To a room with a view

It? bought and paid for

With the price of my tears

So I lay down my heart

When I lay down with you

In a world of possessions

You're my only clue

Why I stay here

When the price is my tears

Na na na na na na na yeah

The price of my tears

Yeah

Everything comes clear

The price of my tears

Year after year

Yeah

The price of my tears

Na na na na na na

The price of my tears
