Inspired by video footage that I saw of the Columbine shooters...they were discussing their plans for the big event and preparing to become "famous." This is a song about the dark side of fame and how everybody, in some recessed corner of their mind seeks validation.

I'm pretty sure that Jesus lives right next door to me
I can tell by the way he's always alone
He plays the beat box to the birds on the laundry line
And I can hear him through my bathroom window
I'm pretty sure that Elvis lives right next door to me
I can tell by the way he's always alive
He's got his lady leanin' up against the wall
and I can hear them through my bathroom window
and it's so obvious
I live like Narcissus
But if I fall I swear
gonna leave a crater there
and I'm
CHORUS:
Gonna be on MTV
Get a street named after me
No one will ever dare to say
We were only half way there
After all that we've been through
I'm gonna be the death of you
and I wanna be
Immortal
in your eyes
Pretty sure your Mama thought that you would be okay
I can tell by the way she covers her eyes
The dog is in the playpin and the coffee kettle's screaming
Get me out before they let the cops in
Is it so obvious
We live like Narcissus
And in your eyes I see
what could become of me
yeah I'm...
Repeat CHORUS
In your eyes I see
What they did not believe
You are my alibi
I never meant to lie
And it's so obvious
We live like Narcissus
But if I fall I swear
I'm gonna leave a big ol' crater there
I'm pretty sure that Jesus lives right next door to me
Repeat chorus w/ tag (extra line):
I want the world to know that I'm alive
And I wanna be
Immortal
in your eyes
