Songs, when thye're true,
  Are all dedicated to you,
  In this invisible world I choose to live in,
  And if you believe that,
  That now I understand,
  Why words mean so much to you,
  They'll never be about you.
  Maybe you're young without youth,
  Or maybe you're old without knowing anything's true,
  I think you're young without youth.
  
  Then you contracted American dreams,
  You'll never look up once,
  You've contracted American dreams,
  I require you to stop and look up.
  
  Sing a song about myself,
  Keep singing a song about myself,
  Not some invisible world.
  
  Constantly searching to find something new,
  But what will you find when you think that nothing's true?
  Maybe it's that nothing is new.
  So you let me hear songs that were written all about you,
  The good songs weren't written for you,
  They'll never be about you.
  
  Then you contract the American dream,
  You'll never look up once,
  You've contracted American dreams,
  You'll never look up once,
  Don't look up.
  
  Sing a song about myself,
  Keep singing a song about myself,
  Not some invisible world. [Repeat x2]
  
  And I won't tell you what this means,
  'Cos you already know,
  And I won't tell you what this means,
  'Cos you already know.
  
  So, sing a song about myself,
  Keep singing a song about myself,
  Not some invisible world. [Repeat x3]
  
  You'll find what you'll find,
  When you find there's nothing. [Repeat x2]
