lyrics

Sometimes when I catch my
Reflection in the mirror
I ask myself now just what
Business do I have
Looking so damn great?

And other times I catch my
Reflection in the mirror
And I notice a new wrinkle
Or a burst vein
And I stay inside all day

Oh why does my anatomy
Have to ride this false dichotomy?
The glass distorts all that I see
Most of the time it seems that I
Just never was meant to be happy

This is the place I come to cry most
Right here in my room
I sit here on the floor for hours til I
Forget what I’m doing
And it won’t amount to much
I just blew another hundred bucks on shit that I don’t need
With anti-aging guarantees

In the many times I catch my
Reflection in the mirror
I am disfigured and distorted
And it’s so much
That a girl could fucking drown

And no matter how close I get
The image isn’t clearer
This is the stone I must push uphill
Maybe always
Just to watch it fall back down

Oh why does every waking second
Have to be photo perfect, I
Feel the pressure to comply
And all I do is try and try and
Die a little more on the inside

This is the place I come to cry most
Right here in my room
I sit here on the floor for hours til I
Forget what I’m doing
And it won’t amount to much
I just blew another hundred bucks on shit that I don’t need
For my altar to saint Vanity
