lyrics

Used By
(Lyrics: S. Bell)

I know that you think I’m sexy
I know you want and need me it’s true
But not in this life or the next one
Will you ever get to touch me
I smile that fashioned smile
Where all the lies fall into place
The flash and glow of the camera lights
Never shows the deadness behind these eyes.

You haven’t seemed to notice
But you still mean nothing
I rip and tear the holes in your back
A sense of pride as your defences go slack
I smile that botox smile
Where all the lies fall into place
Skin thinned like a death mask make
Age seem like a tragic, conceited waste.

I am always waiting for you
Adulation, obsession will do
To make forgotten feats make sense
For my fans a final romance
I smile that stoic smile
Where all the lies fall into place
But the gaze of popularity passed
Another futile cry typecast.

Cupiditas ex hominae
Cupido ex stulto
Numquam tolitur
(a man can be cured of his lust, but a fool can never be cured of his greed)
Where have all the heroes gone?
