State of the Art

You were the first in flight

Now a modern relic

Nearly a payphone on a 1 A.M. sidewalk

We're all cast aside, and we're antiquated

Right as we start to finally figure out what we are

Look at you, so bright

State of the art, you're new, you're young

Your blissful ignorance, it's everything they like

But the years have teeth

And sometimes, they bite

Look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

Oh

Now do you see that smile

At the foot of the ladder?

Ain't it familiar?

That was you only yesterday

But this justice feels

More like a poison apple

And inevitably, everyone'll bite into it

Now look at you, so bright

State of the art, you're new, you're young

Your blissful ignorance, it's everything they like

But the years have teeth

And sometimes, they bite

But look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

I'm falling, I'm falling apart

Oh

The state of, the state of the art

But look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Now look at you

Well, look at you now

Look at you, you're falling apart

Built to spill, you're state of the art

Yeah, look at you

Well, look at you now

State of the art

State of the art

Look at you, so bright
