    Lyrics:
    Thinning airflow through a narrow hallway
    Hanging heads from the billboards, hoping to entertain
    I hear the circle resonate
    You're all nameless faces to me
    I'm merely a short daydream
    I helped you get through nothing
    If you look real close
    hands held under the thorns
    keep you proud of the unknown
    I'm your toy when things get shallow
    I'm under your control
    Press your face to wood floor, you're the grain
    Here's a savior for when you don't feel anything
    I am what you want me to be
    Ripped right out in front of me
    I was on the edge of your everything
    Now something gets in the way
    Innocence sedates your memory
    The misbelief in anything
    I see you on every city street
    Looking for me to fix your pain
    If you look real close
    hands held under the thorns
    keep you proud of the unknown
    I'm your toy when things get shallow
    It swallows everyone
    You don't hold enough to show anything for what you've done
    I'm your toy when things get shallow
    I'm under your control
    I've wished for this
    Well my attention comes and goes ever since
    I've dreamt of this
    Well it is never clean behind the film we're staring at

    Wish I discovered this band sooner! I listened to this song on repeat for 3 hours. Still not tired of it. I think it was designed perfectly.

    This really shows the real pain in being a well-known musician. The pressure must be so heavy. Damn

    Almost all of citizen’s songs remind me eerily of the winter or lots of snowing especially at night. Kind of melancholic but I LOVE it. Up there with TSSF and Knuckle Puck for me

      Every song by citizen is a banger. This album. Youth. Turnover split. Young states. All is golden. Mat is an angel send from whatever god you believe in.

    They've written some excellent songs. This one sticks out as a Father and the struggle and general up and downs of raising and keeping a family intact. Or just love in general. Making it through the tough times more than anything. Unlike today. Just being there and following your heart. Even when you've come close to giving up. Resolvement through better communication and understanding. Leave the resentment at the door.

      Sounds to me it's about the struggles of being a popular musician, having everyone smiling and singing along to songs about your struggles as if it's just a catchy song, when you've put a lot of thought and emotion into it.

    Damn. Listening to this for the first time, I mostly listen to Youth. Reading the lyrics, it seems like this song is directed toward the fans. Read into it a bit closer.
