Idle Idol

[BPM: 124 (slower, melancholic but still pop)

Key in D Minor]

I got everything I wanted…

Why don’t I feel anything?

I played the part, I played it well

Built a heaven, lived in hell

Every mirror knows my face

But I don’t recognize the shape

All the love I fabricated

Never felt like I could take it

If I’m everything they need

Why am I invisible to me?

I’m an idle idol

Standing in the light

Everybody wants me

No one sees inside

I gave up my real life

For a perfect lie

Now I’m just an idol…

Left behind

Every moment, counterfeit

Every touch, I faked a bit

All the dreams I tried to chase

Led me to an empty place

All the love I decorated

Never something I could stay in

If I disappear tonight

Would they even realize?

I’m an idle idol

Standing in the light

Everybody wants me

No one sees inside

I gave up my real life

For a perfect lie

Now I’m just an idol…

Left behind

I could’ve been somebody real

I could’ve learned how to feel

But I was busy being seen

Now I don’t know what I mean

I’m an idle idol

Dying in the light

Everybody loves me

But it’s all a lie

I gave up my real life

For a perfect life

Now I’m just an idol…

Goodnight
