Skeleton Girl
i am rotten to the core
i'll admit there's nothing i love more
than to be adored.
lovers found, lovers lost.
each new year brings a brand new start.
and brand new boys
who fit the part
of a gentler man
and their words feel like art.
catch their eye,
baby, believe my lie.
pretty, pretty, please.
oh i'm so spoiled
yes, you knew this.
i am rotten to the core.
how much more can you endure?
i said i was quite evil
but nobody believed me.
so i went out to prove myself
and found him on the way.
oh you should have known
baby, i am dumb.
i am stupid over you
and everything that you do.
i'm so blue
i'm so blue
i'm so blue over you
and i don't know what i should do
about it.
oh, i'm so blue
i'm so blue
i'm so blue all for you
and i don't think i can make it without
you.
i hope i left a scar
on your heart or your head.
i cannot leave my bed
before i think of you.
no i cannot.
lately all i do is stress.
he knows it, too.
my life is a mess.
i can't hangout today
or this week
or this month.
i need to sleep,
i just can't seem to find the time
between all this pissing and moaning.
i'll admit i was a brat
if you admit you were no one at all.
i made you up,
crafted you from clay.
even though i designed your heart
i could never make you stay.
my sweetest kiss,
you will be missed.
but i can see a future without you.
although i may crave it...
it's over, done with, i destroyed it.
i said i was empty
and you filled me with what you thought i needed.
now i'm disapearing faster, faster,
then all at once
poof!
"her greatest trick yet!
it appears as if she...
why... she is turning into a corpse
right before our eyes!
filled with dust and painted shiney black!
come one, come all... the skeleton girl is back."
