Lyrics
Cheapness and Beauty
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.
This is a real addiction, confusion and cheap tattoos
A princess, a car thief, and a lost shoe
Lonliness, laughter, lust, the promise of pain
Judas in blue jeans tell me your name
Eyes across the room, unspoken
Eyes, glitter promise
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
Glue for the broken toy, the wings for the saint
A buddah, a false God, and some war paint
Wasting your wisdom, yes, but who can you trust
Love holds a mirror up to all of us
Eyes across the room, unspoken
Eyes, glitter promise
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm weak sometimes
It's much too late to say goodbye
Despite all good advice
This pain is such a part of me
I won't apologize
For running to your rescue
Though you slap me in the face
It doesn't really matter
'Cause we always fall in love again
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
Cheapness and beauty
Trickery and lies
Cheapness
I won't apologise
Cheapness and beauty
I see it in your eyes
Cheapness and beauty
Oh I'm so weak sometimes
