They're waiting to hate you

So give them an excuse

They say that it changed you

I know that can't be true

I came in the entrance

The makeup girl went through

And waited for ages

I waited there for you

Hats off to my distant hope

I'm held back by a velvet rope

And he's behind the wall

The smoke machine has made between us

And if he does exist

If camera clicking, green room guests

Swirl 'round the man whose real life can be touched

Then I will do just that much

Hats off to my distant hope

A little lie, a puff of smoke

My street tonight's on fire with hope

You'll be there, you'll see us

I've got my ear against the screen

I feel your feelings crackling

For every single inch of me

I'm going to make you mean it

With every single cell of me

I'm going to make you mean the words you sigh

You lie

Goodbye

Goodbye
