Lyrics For The Camera - The Academic

For The Camera

Ended up in trouble
And didn’t know the way home
Left my opinions on the table
It’s probably better to be alone
Looks like we won’t make it
Can we just start again?
Don’t say goodbye
I’ve gotta go, smile for the cameras
Be nice and don’t forget your manners
You wanna feel something exciting
Wait until tomorrow, till we have the right lighting
Flashbacks to closing your eyelids
Last night you seemed so very quiet
Let’s go, smile for the cameras
Don’t cry for me
Sometimes when I wake up
Dreaming of you, so fluorescent
Holding back a message
A message full of questions
I know, I know, we need, we need, distance
Can we just start again?
Don’t say goodbye
I’ve gotta go, smile for the cameras
Be nice and don’t forget your manners
You wanna feel something exciting
Wait until tomorrow, till we have the right lighting
Flashbacks to closing your eyelids
Last night you seemed so very quiet
Let’s go, smile for the cameras
Don’t cry for me
Don’t say goodbye
Don’t say goodbye
Don’t say goodbye
Don’t say goodbye
Looks like we won’t make it any longer (Don't say goodbye, don’t say goodbye)
Last night, we seemed like strangers, oh-oh (Don't say goodbye, don’t say
goodbye)
I’ve gotta go, smile for the cameras
Be nice and don’t forget your manners
You wanna feel something exciting
Wait until tomorrow, till we have the right lighting
Flashbacks to closing your eyelids
Last night you seemed so very quiet
Let’s go, smile for the cameras
Don’t cry for me
