Dance it in the lime light
play it up for all your little freaks
I hope they like the way your skirt
chases you around the room

What would they think
If I told them
all the things we have done

about the candles and tear drops

You are only human
but we can't let them know that can we?
You must always be so aloof
playing it up for the crowd

wanna run me down for knowing the truth?
Thats fine
I never expected to be loved
I never expected to be an equal
because we all know how boring that can be

What I wanted was a private dancer
someone who would be satisfied with what I had to offer
someone who wouldn't need a cadre of followers
to lap at their combat boots

Thats cool though.
Everything is that way with me,
I swear Miles Davis would kill me if he knew how loosely I used that word.

Cool

as the night breeze
thats how I will remember you
but that doesn't mean I have to even like you.
which I don't
you are the exact opposite of everything I stand for

You are petty and emotionally shallow
The costume fooled me
I saw beauty and Chuck Taylors
got caught up in your gutter glamour
hung on your every word
making excuses for the ones I didn't like

On the surface

we had so much in common
all the things that didn't matter

I can't stand the way you punish me for caring
don't you realize
Sid Vicious was not the messiah
he was a puppet
There is no code against compassion
It is not punishable by a thousand dollar fine or up to a year in prison
like you seem to think
Its not your fault though
blame my ignorance
I should have looked closer before I lept
That is always my mistake
I am so eager for a journey that I never stop to think about the destination.
