Teenage Sounds Lyrics - Picture Show - Neon Trees

I'm sick of living under everybody's shadow 

I'm sick of everyone's success, I know that's shallow 

I sick of hearing people lie to get by, to get by 

I'm sick of people that can't look me in the eye all the time 

I'm tired of girls, I'm tired of boys, I'm tired of nonsense 

I'm t-t-t-t-t-t-tired of the process 

I'm sick and tired of always feeling second best 

I'm tired of never ever making any progress 

To all the cool kids on my block 

Where's there original thought? 

Tell me 

Oh yeah you never heard us 

Don't ever try to turn us down 

We're making all the noise 

We're making teenage sounds 

It's the same old song and dance 

We're sick of everybody trying to be famous 

I'm sick of always operating out of fear 

I'm sick of being called a fag because I'm queer 

I'm sick of everybody saying to be happy (ha ha ha ha) 

I'm positive that I'm allowed to have a bad day 

I'm tired of everybody trying to be a DJ 

I can also pick my favorite songs and press play 

I'm sick of people saying rock 'n' roll is dead 

Learn how to play guitar and save yourself instead 

To all the cool kids on my block 

Where's the original thought? 

Tell me 

Oh yeah you never heard us 

Don't ever try to turn us down 

We're making all the noise 

We're making teenage sounds 

It's the same old song and dance 

We're sick of everybody trying to be famous 

The truth is hard to swallow when it's true 

The truth is hard to swallow when it's choking you 

The truth is hard to swallow when it's true 

The truth is hard to swallow when it's choking you 

Oh yeah you never heard us 

Don't ever try to turn us down 

We're making all the noise 

We're making teenage sounds 

It's the same old song and dance 

We're sick of everybody trying to be famous 

I'm sick of everybody trying to be famous (x4)
