For the Camera Songtext
von The Academic

Ended up in trouble
And didn′t know the way home
Left my opinions on the table
It's probably better to be alone

Looks like we won′t make it
Can we just start again?
Don't say goodbye

I've gotta go smile for the cameras
Be nice and don′t forget your manners
You wanna feel somethin′ exciting
Wait until tomorrow 'til we have the right lighting

Flashbacks to closin′ your eyelids
Last night, you seemed so very quiet
Let's go smile for the cameras
Don′t cry for me

Sometimes when I wake up
Dreamin' of you so fluorescent
Holding back a message
A message full of questions


I know, I know we need, we need distance
Can we just start again?
Don′t say goodbye

I've gotta go smile for the cameras
Be nice and don't forget your manners
You wanna feel somethin′ exciting
Wait until tomorrow ′til we have the right lighting

Flashbacks to closin' your eyelids
Last night, you seemed so very quiet
Let′s go smile for the cameras
Don't cry for me

Don′t say goodbye
Don't say goodbye
Don′t say goodbye
Don't say goodbye
Looks like we won't make it any longer (don′t say goodbye)
Last night, we seemed like strangers, oh (don′t say goodbye)

I've gotta go smile for the cameras
Be nice and don′t forget your manners
You wanna feel somethin' exciting
Wait until tomorrow ′til we have the right lighting


Flashbacks to closin' your eyelids
Last night, you seemed so very quiet
Let′s go smile for the cameras
Don't cry for me
