Retrovertigo
[Verse 1]
Before you advertise
All the fame is implied
With no fortune unseen
Sell the rights to your blight time-machine
[Verse 2]
While I'm dulled by excess (dulled by excess)
And a cynic at best (cynic at the best)
My art imitates crime
Paid for by the allies, so invest
[Chorus]
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes, mesmerized
There's a vintage thirst returning
But I'm sheltered by my channel-surfing
Every famine virtual, Retrovertigo
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge]
A tribute to false memories
With conviction, cheap imitation
Is it fashion or disease?
Post-ironic remains a mouth to feed
[Pre-Chorus]
Sell the rights to your plight and you'll eat
[Chorus]
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes, mesmerized
See the vintage robot wearied
Then awakened by revision's theories
Every famine virtual, Retrovertigo
Before you advertise
All the fame is implied
With no fortune unseen
Sell the rights to your blight time-machine
[Verse 2]
While I'm dulled by excess (dulled by excess)
And a cynic at best (cynic at the best)
My art imitates crime
Paid for by the allies, so invest
[Chorus]
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes, mesmerized
There's a vintage thirst returning
But I'm sheltered by my channel-surfing
Every famine virtual, Retrovertigo
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge]
A tribute to false memories
With conviction, cheap imitation
Is it fashion or disease?
Post-ironic remains a mouth to feed
[Pre-Chorus]
Sell the rights to your plight and you'll eat
[Chorus]
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes, mesmerized
See the vintage robot wearied
Then awakened by revision's theories
Every famine virtual, Retrovertigo
