When the Strings Are Gone

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This isn't about what you think you know Isn't about the things you've learned This is about the way you see everything This is about the bridges burned [Pre-Chorus] But I let it go away, let it go away [Chorus] You have no information You don't reflect at all I know your sanctimonious schemes I will out live them all [Post-Chorus] When the strings are gone When the strings are gone When the strings are gone When they're away [Verse 2] You're livin in a paper world Amusing yourself with rings of dust Isn't it true you'll never own up to things? Isn't it true you really lost? [Pre-Chorus] But I let it go away, let it go away [Chorus Variation] You have your indignation And all the things you own With all your sanctimonious deeds I won't regret at all Will I live off the radar And lose respect for all Or live my life in pursuit of a dream To save what's left of my soul [Post-Chorus] When the strings are gone When the strings are gone When the strings are gone When they're away, when they're away
