Lyrics

[Verse 1] Anyone can be the one that you want You only have to see it through until you feel indifference Take a wife, a child, a family name File them under Johnson, Doe, Smith, or Boring Still condos in simple town to settle down [Chorus 1] On a wing and a smile, you go out in style You're going out in style As long as you look the part above your empty heart You're not as you appear, they're not as they [Verse 2] Appearances are made on Saturdays Lessons come from gunfights, late nights and courtesies Anyone can define where you are Choking on elixirs, mixers and caviar But I'm not getting through to you in a song [Chorus 2] On a wing and a smile, you go out in style You're going out in style As long as you look the part above your weary heart It's not as it appears, you're not as you appear [Refrain] But I'm not getting through to you in a song [Chorus 3] On your way up the hill, I thought you wouldn't fail I thought you couldn't fail They look good from afar in that shiny car They're not as they appear, it's not as it appears [Bridge] Hanging out in tribes And superstitions we subscribe Bad habits in denial Good times [Outro] So bright, so bright, so bright, so bright Now you're burning out in style So bright, so bright, so bright, so bright Now you're burning out in style So bright, so bright, so bright, so bright
