Stronger Now

(album: Phoenix - 2010)

So this is it
You're under the gun
You can feel the pressure rising with the tension
Your destiny is calling
Pick up
Pick up
But the market's overcrowded
Let's eat them up

I've seen the greed
I've seen the greed
In all their eyes
In all their eyes
And in the back of their minds
You're a dollar sign
Sign the dotted line
See your name in lights

I stand alone
Because no one can save you
When you've sunk this low
The glitz and the glamour
We all need to find our own
Why does
It seems
That no one can save their own soul?
We love the glitz and the glamorous

So this is what it's come down to
You're pocket change in the pocket of a designer suit
You're a product of the scene
To be bought and sold
But money pays the bills
And the sales are low

I've seen your dreams
I've seen your dreams
Trampled in the streets
Trampled in the streets
And they're collecting in the gutters for the rats to eat
Another scripted scene
Live the "American Dream"

I stand alone
Stand alone
Because no one can save you
When you've sunk this low
The glitz and the glamour
We all need to find our own
Find our own
Why does
It seems
That no one can save their own soul?
We love the glitz and the glamorous

This is our call
This is our call
This is our time
This is our time
We have to shine

We're stronger now
Did you think that we could ever make it out?
Did you think that we could ever make it out?
Did you think that we could ever make it out?
We're stronger now
Did you think that we could ever make it out?
Did you think that we could make it out
Or we'd just sink back into the crowd?
We're stronger now
Did you think that we could ever make it out?
Did you think that we could make it out
Or we'd just sink back into the crowd?

I stand alone
Stand alone
Because no one can save you
When you've sunk this low
The glitz and the glamour
We all need to find our own
Find our own
Why does
It seems
That no one can save their own soul?
We love the glitz and the glamorous
I stand alone
Stand alone
Because no one can save you
When you've sunk this low
The glitz and the glamour
We all need to find our own
Find our own
Why does
It seems
That no one can save their own soul?
We love the glitz and the glamorous
