Reject me hey Reject me
Build me up higher


It's the status of Idol
To which I aspire


I could lie to you all
And you'd never think twice


Selling lip-gloss and hair dye
I'm the piper, you're mice


Please tell us we're cool
And forget that I'm flawed


It's the image and the fashion
Not the heart that you bought


I'll sing for the music
And I'll bow for the cheers


And I'll hold up a soda
While I hold back the tears


Forget me hey Forget me
I stood for something


Having all these convictions
Gets so exhausting


I'll pretend that it's worth it
All the soul that it's costing


You would do it for the money
You would do it for fun


You would do the same thing
If it meant that you'd be shunned


From all of the parties
And all the premieres


This won't feel the same
After several years


So I'll hold up a soda
While I hold back the tears


Please tell us we're cool
And forget that I'm flawed


It's the image and fashion
Not the heart that you bought


If it's questions you have
Or it's insight you need


I'm an expert on greed

I know it's wrong

It's wrong

I know

Hurting you is wrong

I know

It's wrong
It's wrong


I know
It's wrong
It's wrong
