I see it now
I see it straight outta nowhere
Megalomaniac nightmare
Totally wild and unaware
The people want
The people wanted a spotlight
They got it now & it's all eyes
Worship the stars or criticize
But you can find me hanging in the back corner
Cheerin on the bartender
Hanging in the back with her
Man I'm happy living in the shadow works
Nothing's gonna make me hurt
Nothing's gonna make me hurt
With no mistakes would there be anywhere to go?
Like, would there be a blue note?
Or even zany Picasso?
The people want
The people wanted a spotlight
They got it now & it's all eyes
Worship the stars or criticize
You can find me hanging in the back corner
Cheerin on the bartender
Hanging in the back with her
Man I'm happy living in the shadow works
Nothing's gonna make me hurt
Nothing's gonna make me hurt
I don't mind being the one who's listening when everyone's freakin out
Screaming' like psychos
Cuz I know that most of us just wanna love & be loved when it comes down to it
If that's you then come around
And find me hanging in the back corner
Cheerin on the bartender
Hanging in the back with her
Man I'm happy living in the shadow works
Nothing's gonna make me hurt
Nothing's gonna make me hurt
