State of pain
Like mercury
Hearing pink illusion
Gorgeous at 85
Older at 23

I drink the water out of time
I said, has anybody seen
The whirlpool floating in my mind
I said, has anybody seen
This is the low that I could find

And I'm on solitary sand
And I've been stepped on by a man
But I stood taller than I am
In parentheses

Beauty queens are very shy
More than lash that meets the eye
So she jumps then wants to fly
But it's too late now
I'm in denial

I get midevil on boy bands
I said, is anybody listening?
The way life makes the nice girls fast
I said, is anybody listening?
It isn't just a lucky chance
And I'm on solitary sand
And all the bullshit from a man
But found exactly who I am

I'll never be the vision of a girl who can write poetry
I'll never be the little black dress we've seen on Natalie B
I'll never be five foot ten, I'm barely five foot three
I'm on solitary sand, but in parentheses
