lyrics

Vanity
It's killing me
Vanity
It's killing me

Mirror, mirror on the wall
In the bathroom, down the hall
Shaking up the noontime lights
In my head and out of sight

Make up on your toes and face
In your head, all over the place
Make up in your kitschy bag
Make up on the end of your drag

Driving fast and driving slow
You're too high and i'm too low
Sinking into your messy bed
Sinking deep beneath my head

Eyes of turquoise, eyes of teal
Skin that's much too smooth to feel
Looking at you looking around
Past your feet and down to the ground

Drag the night out, drag it in
Drag the night all over again
Drag me back and drag me round
Drag me up and drag me down

Looking past you just to see
If maybe your looks could stop killing me
Maybe you can turn around
Maybe then i'll be safe and sound
