False Advertising Lyrics
Artist(Band):Bright Eyes
Review The Song (4)Print the Lyrics
On a string...

On a string...

On a string, I was held.
The way I move, can you tell?
My actions are orchestrated from above.
So I swing and I sway.
Wave my hand, kick my leg,
And it is always right with the music.

"Until all that swaying starts to make you sick..."

For a song I was bought,
Now I lie when I talk
With a careful eye on the cue card.
Onto a stage I was pushed,
With my sorrow well rehearsed.
So give me all your pity and your money, now (all of it)

"We used to think that sound was something pure..."

If I could act like
This was my real life,
And not some cage where I've been placed,
Well then, I could tell you
The truth like I used to
And not be afraid of sounding fake.

Now all anyone's listening for are the mistakes!


(Ah, I'm sorry!)

(Oh, it's okay, it's okay)


1, 2, 3,
1, 2, 3!

In a house by myself,
I hear the ice start to melt,
And I'll watch rooftops weep for the sunlight.
And I know what must change,
Fuck my face. Fuck my name,
They are brief and false advertisements...

...For a soul I don't have.
Something true I have lacked
And spent my whole life trying to make up for.
But I found in a song
And in the people I love,
They will lift me up out of darkness.

And now my door, it stands open,
I'm inviting everyone in.
We're gonna laugh,
We're gonna drink until the morning comes.
That's what we're gonna to do...
Come on!! Come on!!

Review about False Advertising

fffff | Reviewer: Dick Roll | 4/25/09

I like this song because it seems to reflect himself. Many people may find different ways to relate to this, and I do as well.
If I could act like
This was my real life,
And not some cage where I've been placed,
Well then, I could tell you
The truth like I used to
And not be afraid of sounding fake.

And the verses later on seem to relate to me as well very well.. The reason being that I do not feel like I am living my life the way I want to, but really there is nothing to reveal about a better life anyways. Almost like I was living my life with only small troubles before, but with the innocence being terminated as the years pass, life is not complicated or simple, it is just dull. I think that he wrote the song along the lines of that, in his own experience though.



Puppet | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/18/08

I was thinking about this when I was listening to it. The meaning I took from it was that his music does mean a lot to him, and he doesn't want to be a puppet for some higher power and just play music to be entertaining. I think he really wants to speak to people. Which he does, to me at least.

I think this song is about the music industry
"Something true I have lacked"
That it's getting more and more shallow, just being about the money or something like that. I don't know, but that's what I first think of when i hear this song.



hmm | Reviewer: Kyler | 7/21/07

this song reminds me of me.
the part where he said
"Something true I have lacked
And spent my whole life trying to make up for.
But I found in a song
And in the people I love,
They will lift me up out of darkness"
because thats exactaly how I feel about myself.
I feel like nothing I'll ever do will be good enough for anyone else
so its like I have to sit around and write songs all day
because my words will somehow make up for it or something....
