the dangers of vanity
|
Alter Egoist
She lives on diet coke and weight loss pills cause
No matter what she takes she never gets her fill
Of that sweetness she craves
That taste of going somewhere she can stay
The moneys running low but she’ll always get the bill cause
She lives in make believe where notes are always plentiful
She piles them up, sweet stakes of glory
Used to fill her cup
And it’s a long way down to make it back up
She’s balancing on cobwebs but they’re gathering dust
And whispering with spiders
Is slowly starting to take its toll
To take its toll
Everyone keeps running round
stealing things
breaking hearts
and never putting them back again
I’m left here standing still
In the dark
Waiting for my
Life to begin again
I lived in sin, yeah I revelled in it
And I need my hit, just to feel again
Oh oh oh
She looks like Barbie dolls fake tanned and golden skin but
What’s hidden underneath
Are rooting dreams and pills
Just to balance her out
Perfection’s always something you can doubt
Go ahead and take her out on dates and diamond dreams but
You’ll never get beyond her tightly gritted teeth
Cause the truth is what you want
And the truth is something she will always keep
And it’s a long way down to make it back up
She’s balancing on cobwebs but they’re gathering dust
And whispering with spiders
Is slowly starting to take its toll
To take its toll
Everyone keeps running round
stealing things
breaking hearts
and never putting them back again
I’m left here standing still
In the dark
Waiting for my
Life to begin again
I lived in sin, yeah I revelled in it
And I need my hit, just to feel again
Oh oh oh
She lives on diet coke(aine) x4
And it’s a long way down to make it back up
She’s balancing on cobwebs but they’re gathering way too much dust
