One track mind, like a goldfish,
Stuck inside my petri dish.
I can't breathe, and I can't smile,
This better be worth my while.

I feel numb most of the time,
Lower I get, the higher I'll climb,
And I will wonder why,
I got dark only to shine.
Looking for the golden light,
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice.

Burn, burn, burn bright

Forgo families, forgo friends
That's how it started, and how it ends,
I can't open up and cry,
Cause I've been silent all my life

I feel numb most of the time,
Lower I get, the higher I'll climb,
And I will wonder why,
I get dark only to shine.
Looking for the golden light,
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice.

Burn, burn, burn bright
Burn, burn, burn bright

Ooh, I get dark,
Ohh, and I'm in hell,
I need a friend,
Ooh, but I can't yell,
Yeah, I'm no good,
No good to anyone,
'Cause all I care about,
Is being number one.

Shine,
Looking for the golden light,
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice.

Shine,
Looking for the golden light,
Oh, it's a reasonable sacrifice.
Sacrifice.

I feel numb most of the time,
Lower I get, the higher I'll climb,
And I will wonder why,
I get dark only to shine.
And I'll light up the sky,
Stars that burn the brightest,
Fall so fast and pass you by,
Puff like empty lighters,

I feel numb most of the time,
Lower I get, the higher I'll climb,
And I will wonder why,
I get dark only to shine.
And I'll light up the sky,
Stars that burn the brightest,
Fall so fast and pass you by,
Spark like empty lighters.

Dum dum dum, duh dah da.
