I've been lost 
Lips around a tailpipe, sucking up exhaust 
But I wanna just breathe, breathe deep 
You know sometimes this city brings me to my knees 
I wonder if the day will come when the party's done 
And we'll all go back to where we're from 

My head aches 
Realizing my heart is always set to break 
Has this hangover lifted yet? 
All of this nostalgia hinges on regret 
Those moments when joy and pain start to feel the same 
And there's no one left to take the blame 

You wanna be a superstar? 
That cocaine heart won't get you far 
Another case of death by guitar 
You gotta save your soul 
It's only rock 'n' roll 
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh 

Bathed in white 
Writing down my vitals, seeking signs of life 
I swear I was made for more 
Than finding new rock bottom, plastered to the floor 
But you know, the doctors don't think I'm insane 
And my boyfriend thinks I'm playing games 

You wanna be a superstar? 
That cocaine heart won't get you far 
Another case of death by guitar 
You gotta save your soul 
It's only rock 'n' roll 
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh 

These fresh eyes 
Looking like they've never even seen the sky 
Like some aperture opened wide 
Stockings on the pavement, shocked that I survived 
So this is what it's like to live inside the time 
That you'll remember all your life 

The anesthetic's wearing thin 
You're feeling everything 
The needles and the pins 
Devastation and surprise 
That's being alive 

So honey, whatcha running from? 
Don't you know who you become? 
It's in the pounding of the drums 
A beat that makes you whole 
Come on and lose control 
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh 

You wanna be a superstar? 
That cocaine heart won't get you far 
Another case of death by guitar 
You gotta save your soul 
It's only rock 'n' roll 
You wanna be a superstar? 
That cocaine heart won't get you far 
Another case of death by guitar 
You gotta save your soul 
It's only rock 'n' roll 
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh
