Story behind the song
There's an empty space that only our music can fill. The dream of successfully making it in this business is fading. The reality that this space will remain unfilled and we will have to accept the mundane is overwhelming.
Lyrics
Sell Out (3:35) I envy you Everything you love is right here What was it you were looking for? I can't be you And what I love is so far away Why do I keep wanting more? I can see my reflection in your eyes Don't tell me you can't see it Don't you tell me lies Chorus I used to be bold I had something great Now I am polished and put up for sale I can't believe Everything you love is right here Why are you not wanting more? Can you have nothing more than simple dreams that most would not settle for? I can see my reflection in your eyes Don't tell me you can't see it Don't you tell me lies Chorus I know how to sell out But will I want it when I get it? But will I want it when I get it? Will I want it when I get it? Will I want it when I get it? Chorus
