Lyrics
Welcome To The Vanity Faire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I search high and low but I can't find you.
Still your vexing laugh entices me.
Close enough to touch but then you run away.
I'm about to quit and then you say, "lose yourself in the vanity faire!"
Insanity is whispering to me, woah.
What I believe is just not making sense of what I see.
Show me your reflection, a sly disguise, is it the girl you want to be?
A porcelain smile, you're knockout, baby!
Drape yourself in fragile fantasy!
I see your reflection, a sly disguise, and it's not the girl you want to be.
A fraudulent smile.
What you see is what you've asked for but it's never what you are!
A cold-hearted tale.
Lost in a maze of beautiful deception.
And just like before I'm at the mercy of a phantom!
When will it end? How will it end? And will you be in my arms?
I just can't take anymore of this pointless search for nothing!
Insanity is whispering to me, woah.
What I believe is just not making sense of what I see.
Show me your reflection, a sly disguise, is it the girl you want to be?
A porcelain smile, you're knockout, baby!
Drape yourself in fragile fantasy!
I see your reflection, a sly disguise, and it's not the girl you want to be.
A fraudulent smile.
What you see is what you've asked for but it's never what you are!
Hey hey hey!
Silence! Oh cruel harlot!
Silence! Your filthy tongue will be stilled!
Laughter echoing, I'm unraveling tonight.
Silence! I've had enough!
Silence! No longer will you stop me!
Your vanity so patiently will steal your soul.
You're hideous.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, a liar to us all, you'll be the one to fall.
The eye of the beholder knows the truth!
Show me your reflection, a sly disguise, is it the girl you want to be?
A porcelain smile, you're knockout, baby!
Drape yourself in fragile fantasy!
I see your reflection, a sly disguise, and it's not the girl you want to be.
A fraudulent smile.
What you see is what you've asked for but it's never what you are!
But it's never what you are!
What you see is what you've asked for!
what you see is what you get!
A cold-hearted tale!
Attack the mirrors!
Shatter the prison!
One by one reflections fall, come on come on come on come on!
Until I destroy them all, come on come on come on come on!
