Those violins playing inside your head
Please shut them up
I'm sleeping
The doorway's over there
The boy I was has gone, they blew his happy brains out
They ground him down
I never thought that I would end up here
Let's take the songs to the town
So they can shoot ' em all down
Kill the orchestra
We're dying anyway
You'd start a war with all the words in the world
But they're not enough
You're beaten
And no one really cares
Let's take our dreams to the town
So they can shoot 'em all down
Kill the orchestra
We're dying anyway
Inside the car
Sits the never was rock star
Stuck in the past
With your woe is me story
I used to care
Now you'll get little sympathy
So get your guitar
It's the death of a salesman
And I'll be singing when they string you up
Yes, I'll be singing when they string you up
Who's laughing now?
Now you find your house empty
Desdemona, what did you do to yourself?
And I'll be singing when they string you up
Yes, I'll be singing as they string you up
Let's take the songs to the town
So they can shoot ' em all down
Kill the orchestra
We're dying anyway
Look what you've become
You're the neighbourhood parody
The player of games
Your own worst enemy
So play it again
Please play it again for me
Your secret is out
Laid out for all to see
Those violins playing inside your head
Please shut them up
I'm sleeping
The doorway's over there
Let's take the songs to the town
So they can shoot 'em all down
Kill the orchestra
We're dying anyway
And I'll be singing when they string you up
Yes, I 'll be singing when they string you up
What have we done?
What have we done?
Tell me what have we done?
What have we done?
