No one has to know I could always hide But sometimes it might get to me The things and all their minds Like: They don't know I'm lonely And: They don't know I'm kin Or scared that I can't hack it with the current paradigm Every single line Every single rhyme Every single truth I sing Once started as a lie I promise that I'm fine But then I redesign And put myself together like some little Frankenstein Ah-ah Does a story die with its narrator? Ah-ah Surely it's forgotten soon or later Ah-ah Hope they spell my name right in the paper Ah-ah In here lies the great impersonator Mm-mm I'm lying in a car crash In a pile of broken glass It's funny how it looks like glitter from the overpass I'm in a pick-up truck, the door is stuck I'm sinking in the water and the girl inside is waving But the people just applaud her This is a cry for help, callin' for assistance But you can't tell I need it when you’re watchin' from a distance Ah-ah Does a story die with its narrator? Ah-ah Surely it's forgotten soon or later Ah-ah Hope they spell my name right in the paper Ah-ah In here lies the great impersonator
