Lila

Lyrics

You called me up to tell me you were sick of the cold You swore you'd leave but morning finds you back in his arms You look guilty as you confess, he's like a very good drug You come home late tripping on your tall shiny shoes You drag him to bed and giggle as you kiss until you bruise When you wake up in the morning, did he remember your name I'm not pretty like you I don't where colors or hues That blind minds when I speak, I don't glow like you do But the neon and alcohol It rubs you raw and sore Do you know who you are, when you reflect in the window When you look back walking in your stainless gown Is your diamond larger than the load on your back Does it justify the secrets I'm not pretty like you I don't break bottles or pews I watch you dazzle time, selling youth and beauty But the neon and alcohol It rubs you raw and sore Do you know who you are, when you reflect in the window Lila, Lila wake up Your heart is falling apart You're hiding from the woman you can't recognize yourself
