[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Sipping espresso through a monocleâs glare,
Vintage threads and a dismissive air,
Name-drop Kafka at a basement show,
âYouâve never heard them? Oh, darling, *how slow*.â
[Chorus]
Weâre the architects of borrowed grace,
Dancing in a borrowed time and space,
Jangle chords and a synth-wave chase,
Our *taste so divine*, itâs a clichĂ© we embrace.
[Verse 2]
Your vinyl collectionâs alphabetized shame,
I scoff at your playlistâitâs all *mainstream* fame,
Quote French New Wave with a smirk and a sigh,
âYour lens is so pedestrianâmineâs Bokeh skies.â
[Bridge]
Cigarette whispers in a loft we donât own,
Debate postmodernism in a condescending tone,
âAuthenticityâs d**d,â we laugh, rolling eyes,
While mirroring the idols we criticize.
[Chorus]
Weâre the architects of borrowed grace,
Dancing in a borrowed time and space,
Jangle chords and a synth-wave chase,
Our *taste so divine*, itâs a clichĂ© we embrace.
[Outro]
