So intrigued by my lips How could you notice the slits in my wrist You fell in love with my mask And couldn't taste the drugs in my kiss Mislead by my smile You thought those were tears of joy Are you choosing to be blind on purpose Or did you fall for my ‘happy’ decoy. You hold conversations with a body Because my soul already left me Trying to show me what love is But I'm completely empty.

Mannequin Pains
So intrigued by my lips How could you notice the slits in my wrist You fell in love with my mask And couldn't taste the drugs in my kiss Mislead by my smile You thought those were tears of joy Are you choosing to be blind on purpose Or did you fall for my ‘happy’ decoy. You hold conversations with a body Because my soul already left me Trying to show me what love is But I'm completely empty.
