|
The paranoid great movie queen |
|
Sits idly fully armed |
|
The powder and mascara there |
|
A warning light for charm |
|
We see her every movie night |
|
The strong against the weak |
|
The lines come out and struggle with |
|
The empty voice that speaks |
|
Her heart is oh so tired now |
|
Of kindnesses gone by |
|
Like broken glasses in a drain |
|
Gone down but not well spent |
|
The road from barbary to here |
|
She sold then stole right back |
|
The vanity, insanity her hungry heart forgave |
|
The fading bride's dull beauty grows |
|
Just begging to be seen |
|
Beneath the magic lights that reach from |
|
Barbary to here |
|
Her schoolhouse mind has windows now |
|
Where handsome creatures come to watch |
|
The anaesthetic wearing off |
|
Antarctica starts here |
