Текст песни
Everyone loves a comeback tale
But your face can tip the scale
It's not just 'bout what you've done
It's how you're seen when the show's begun
A killer with a perfect face
Gets forgiven with a touch of grace
But the one who's rough around the edges
Is pushed aside, held to the ledge
It's all a game of perception
We all crave redemption
It's true that life ain't fair
We cancel, we don't care
We paint our world with shades of lies
We choose the villains and the saints
But no one's pure in the brightest light
(We are, we are) a bunch of hypocrites
Just 'cause you look good in their eyes
Doesn't mean you don't wear a disguise
(We are, we are) hypocrites in different ways
Some people get a second chance
While others never get the glance
It's not about what's right or wrong
It's the narrative that plays along
The kind one might have secrets too
The villains got us off the view
But it's easier to live in black and white
Than face the gray within the fight
It's all a game of perception
We all crave redemption
It's true that life ain't fair
We cancel, we don't care
We paint our world with shades of lies
Trading justice for alibis
We choose the villains and the saints
But no one's pure in the brightest light
(We are, we are) a bunch of hypocrites
Just 'cause you look good in their eyes
Doesn't mean you don't wear a disguise
(We are, we are) hypocrites in different ways
Who gets to rewrite their story?
Who falls and who gets glory? (Not me!)
Who gets to rewrite their story? (Not me!)
Who falls and who gets glory? (Not me!)
Who gets to rewrite their story? (Not me!)
Who falls and who gets glory? (Not me!)
We choose the villains and the saints
But no one's pure in the brightest light
We are (we are), we are (we are)
A bunch of hypocrites
Just 'cause you look good in their eyes
Doesn't mean you don't wear a disguise
We are (we are), we are (we are)
Hypocrites in different ways
