Hooks

I wrote this song as a sort of self-therapy. I've only just started up writing again, so I'd really really love criticism, in as much detail as possible if you have it or feel like giving it. Only one rule: please be polite and keep your criticisms within reason. 

 (Verse 1) 
We pay for brand new faces,
Cause they don't like our own 

They say that it's not good enough,
So buy a better one 

We're dressing up our pain,
In silks and five star shoes 

Treat things as if they're people

Now people just get used

(Chorus) 

The shiny things that draw our hearts are vultures in disguise,
Circling 'round our heads until it's time to strike 

Without a sound, come shooting down, like bullets in the night 

And we're to numb and drunk off pleasure,
To look up at the sky 


(Verse 2) 

We party with our shades on,
The world is bleeding rose

Careful not to take them off though, 
You're saner with them on 

(Chorus repeats) 



(Bridge) 

Instrumental 



(Chorus repeats final time)
