The downside to being better than everyone is that people seem to think you are pretentious.
Critics
You could say Im pretentious
You could say Im the nazz
You could hail me as the new king of it all
You could say Im nothing new
You could speak well of me
You could say its already been done before
What will you make of my lines
What will you think Ive said
What hidden secrets will you say are in my head
I feel you waiting for me
Waiting to dig my grave
Im growing scared of everything you could say
Look in my eyes
Theres no surprise at all
Critical mind
What will you find to say
Old faces in my wardrobe
So many Ive not seen
Memories to look back on people Ive been
Dead love on faded carpets
Nostalgia grows with time
I see your face in mirrors shadowing mine
I see your dirty finger
Marks are still on my wall
I can recall the time we tried it that way
In dingy hotel backrooms
Where paint cracks like your face
I must admit I have acquired the taste (? )
Stab my arm
With your synthetic feelings
You amaze me
I crave for you
You could say Im pretentious
You could say Im the nazz
You could hail me as the new king of it all

Flesh Into Gear
I can't expect you to see
me when i'm not around
and my voice is destroyed
by confinement of sound
i'm a human machine
laced with hidden disease
if the future looks bleak
then you're connected to me
flesh into gear
myself appears dissected and pretentious
a simple sound a heavy sigh
you'll win the whole world over
you'll live in fear of being someone that you didn't want to
i realize your insecurities will get the best of you
a traitor's embrace
how foolish how wrong
contained in one place
anxiety spawns
unopened reowned
what's needed upscaled
digested inhaled
unwilling unwound
flesh into gear
myself appears dissected and pretentious
a simple sound a heavy sigh
you'll win the whole world over
you'll live in fear of being someone that you didn't want to
i realize your insecurities will get the best of you
[repeat]

It’s a challenge to play pretentious people, I think. You can’t have the audience hating her. You have to see moments where she’s generous and warm.

I think, you know, as an actor we get these terribly sort of pretentious ideas in our heads. We try to take everything very seriously at first, you know, until we lighten up, we get onboard, and have a laugh.
