Costigan - The Bride

Opinion opinion don't mean a thing
When it's based on an entity that donât deserve to sing
And it's all only said to feel relevent
You only speak kindly about your plans
Ain't it a shame the way the world works
They take for granted what they don't deserve
If you don't have what it takes to write your own record
Then what is it that this record is meant for
Should you follow the market or follow your heart
Creating sugarcoated products to fit in with the charts
Ain't it a shame the way the world works
They take for granted what they don't deserve
So why should you believe in fame
Tt's not about who knows your name
It's not about who knows your name
They tell you to be someone else
But what've you got if not yourself
What have you got if now yourself
The talented and the talentless are advertised in the exact same way
Write another song about the club so the machine gets paid
The machine gets paid
Why should you even think this through
You're worth more than their cheapened imagery
I'm sorry youâre not good enough
These next few months are gonna be tough
You'll never have to hear them say
You may have given everything but we can't sell integrity
So why should you believe in fame
It's not about who knows your name
It's not about who knows your name
They tell you to be someone else
But what've you got if not yourself
