Lyrics : Billy Corgan
Music : Billy Corgan
A day, an useless, day-glo, burden
Death rock, boy, the endless burden
Mascara smashes, and the lipstick's lost
And the thought of being forgotten burns and glows
In your sad machines
You'll stay forever
And you were never, ever, ever, ever
Despairing, and displeased, whoever you are
And you're a star
He frowns, and smiles, and pulls his hair down somewhere
A hidden diamond you can't find
A secret star that cannot shine for you
May the king of gloom, be forever doomed
In your sad machines
You'll stay forever
Burning out at such a speed
Lost inside a teenage dream
Useless, burden, empty days
The lonesome towers of long mistakes
To the forgotten faces, and the faded loves
To sit, is not to sit, too still, for sitting still
Is not to still, and if you will, then you will will, you
'Cause in your sad machines
You'll stay forever
Burning out at such a speed
Lost inside a teenage dream
