you and I we were born to play these parts and we play them so well
so well and often sometimes you and I forget you know who we really are
it keeps me locked into the deal

Binary stars, companions in the sky always in orbit but never to collide
we´re just not going supernova any time soon
we´re just two stars out under the moon

Typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won´t they cancel us?
we got a million more seasons to go
oh no, oh yes, we´ve been typecast

every shadow I knew you underneath was just a studio trick, a spotlight on the stage
black bottles to simulate the depth
to manipulate the young and naive and hide your age

we´re worse than liars we´re paid to be fixed
ghost lights in our living rooms for in-between matinées
two lonely stars someplace beyond the moon where the light is coming from
but never receiving or getting any

We´re typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won´t they cancel us?
oh come on, typecast, we play losers who keep falling in love with the wrong ones
Typecast, what a show, why won´t they cancel us?
We´ve been typecast, yeah we´ve been typecast
