Lyrics for You Are Not Alone
They've cast me in the movie of my life as myself And keep trying to write me happy They say, "We want to make relatable characters People don't pay for stories that make them uncomfortable." I say, "Do what you want, But the scenes people will talk about Are when the soundtrack is swelling And the audience is watching through their fingers," As I flick matches from my tongue and ask, "You wanna see a trick?" Watch how I can make myself burn Then dance on the ashes like it's nothing Like I was born of burning Like this is every day
