I need you to make me proud 
I need electric to play it loud 
But I don’t need your sympathy 
I’m just a player in your kings and queens 

I don’t want to lose my sight 
I don’t want to fight my fight 
On a big screen TV 
I don’t wanna burn your money 

I need you to get me by 
I need electric to get me high 
But I don’t need your friendly smiles 
I’m just the bricks and you’re the miles 

I don’t want to live like you 
And I don’t want to know your truth 
But I’ll always do my thing 
But you have me on your string 

I need you to make me shout 
I need electric to drown you out 
But I don’t need all of your words 
I am sound, you can’t be heard 

I don’t want to waste your breath 
I don’t want you to forget 
I’m the problem, you’re the test 
I can’t hear you, none of these
