Lyrics

You were given a list
Of people who weren’t there any more
Some of them you didn’t know
And some of them you adored
Did you make the safer bet
Or did you feel left out
They’re all made of paper
All fragile and flammable

You said it was nothing special
You said it was nothing special
You said it was nothing special

So you made your plans
Just to hear them out
And they paraded their stories
Before they started to melt
The important people in the room
All stood in bright silence
See the festival crack
All fireworks and defiance

You said there was nothing special
You said there was nothing special
You said there was nothing special

The most important people in the room
All trying to make their escape
But they never said a word to you
And you said there was nothing special
About being special
