I don't know how it started but it can't end too soon |
|
The way the tide is turning |
|
I think you're singing the wrong tune |
|
You're addicted to an image you can never attain |
|
The time and money spent enough to drive me insane |
|
You're fronting like a billboard but easier to read |
|
An ounce of introspection is what you probably need |
|
You don't have care |
|
Your bandwagon's rolling but it's going nowhere |
|
I'm not buying in |
|
You'll be all alone |
|
You're all dressed up |
|
With no place to go |
|
I'm lookin' through the pages of a magazine |
|
My stomach nearly turns at the images |
|
I seeA plastic persona fronts on every page |
|
My blood starts to boil, |
|
I border on rage |
|
Could you really be so jaded just to throw yourself away |
|
I know what |
|
I see,cause |
|
I see it everydayit's so plain to see |
|
You're just another product,a commodity |
|
So long ago, |
|
I knew you then |
|
The truth be told,we were the closest of friends |
|
And you were so much more than you'll ever know |
|
So much deeper than appearances show |
|
But you traded all you had for a glossy shine |
|
And you choke down insincerity like vintage wine |
|
Just thinkin' back to the friend |
|
I knewI wish that things were different cause |
|
I won't be fooled |
|
No moreIt's only human nature |
|
And I'm the same way |
|
But if I had the chance |
|
I'd throw it all away! |
