(Be the best or they will judge you) Breaking the back to make good music Smile for the camera, idiot! Always be on top Break records, be revolutionary Everything I've ever heard It's a pressure that kills slowly And when everything explodes they blame it on you Be the best or they judge you The industry is a battlefield It's sing or die I wish I could wake up invisible Would the pressure be lower? Or was I just trying to escape the guilt of being insufficient? Maybe that's what I've always been Maybe I'm not the best Best (be the best) best (be the best) Maybe this is my mind creating things I want to believe Usually I feel like a mintomaniac Crying for rooms in my head Creating scenarios where I'm the star of the show Coming out once again in the newspaper Your music is tiring and horrible Another glass of wine I think I'm going to sink Be the best or they judge you The industry is a battlefield It's sing or die I wish I could wake up invisible Would the pressure be lower? Or was I just trying to escape the guilt of being insufficient? Maybe that's what I've always been Maybe I'm not the best Best (be the best) best (be the best) Lying to myself My friends cry for me I'm the worst thing at this party Perfect bodies and voices that hypnotize Tell me I'll be the center Drunk at the entrance Crying for the things I endured in silence Writing empty songs just because they say that about me A part of me will never be the same Be the best or they judge you The industry is a battlefield It's sing or die I wish I could wake up invisible Would the pressure be lower? Or was I just trying to escape the guilt of being insufficient? Maybe that's what I've always been Maybe I'm not the best Best (be the best) best (be the best)
