Celebrity Skin

Oh, make me over
I'm all I want to be
A walking study
In demonology

Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, so glad you could make it now

Oh, look at my face
My name is might have been
My name is never was
My name's forgotten

Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, there's only us left now

When I wake up in my makeup
It's too early for that dress
Wilted and faded somewhere in
Hollywood
I'm glad I came here
With your pound of flesh
No second billing cause you're a star now
Oh, Cinderella
They aren't sluts like you
Beautiful garbage beautiful dresses
Can you stand up or will you
just fall down

You better watch out
What you wish for
It better be worth it
So much to die for

Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, there's only us left now

When I wake up in my makeup
Have you ever felt so used up as this?
It's all so sugarless
Hooker/waitress/model/actress
Oh, just go nameless
Honeysuckle, she's full of poison
She obliterated everything she kissed
Now she's fading
Somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad I came here
With your pound of flesh

You want a part of me
Well, I'm not selling cheap
No, I'm not selling cheap

"Acoustic #3"

They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told you
And the least they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew

And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
No one's listening anyway

Your voice is small and fading
And you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
'Cause she's got nowhere to go

And she wonders where these dreams go
'Cause the world for in her way
What's the point ever trying
Nothing's changing anyway

They press their lips against you
And you love the lies that they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you're falling anyway

And you know I see right through you
'Cause the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
You're not listening anyway

"Amnesia"

Goodbye to the summer
Sold down the river
Unhappy ever after
Well did you ever?
Did you ever reach for the glued-down penny?
Same old joke and it's not funny
Burns are red bruises blue
Out with the old cheated by the new

Do you suffer from a long term memory loss?
I don't remember (2x)

You sing the same old verse
Stick like glue for better or worse
What goes aruond comes around
Again and again
This heart pulled apart
Hydra fighting head to head
Burns are red bruises blue
Out with the old cheated by the new

Do you suffer from a long term memory loss?
I don't remember (2x)

Amnesia

Do you suffer from a long term memory loss?
I don't remember...

"You Look So Fine"

You look so fine
I want to break your heart
And play with your mind
You're taking me over

It's so insane
You got me down and chained
I hear your name
I'm falling over

I'm not like all of the other girls
I can't take it like the other girls
I won't share it like the other girls
But you used it all

You look so fine

Knocked down
Cried out
Pinned down just to
Find out
How good
You were for me

I'm open wide
I want to take you home
We'll waste some time
You're the only one for me

You look so fine
I'm like the devil tonight
Leave her behind
If you want to show me

I'm not like all of the other girls
I won't take it like the other girls
I won't fake it like the other girls
But you used it all

You're taking me over
Over and over
I'm falling over
Over and over

Love me one more time
I decide: "Me tonight"
Do what you want to do
Just pretend, happy end
Let me know, let it show
In the wind, let 'em go
In the wind, let 'em go
In the wind, let 'em go

Let's pretend, happy end (4x)

"Heart and Shoulder"

Wanna cry for you
Would it do any good?
If I rained for you
It would just be water
And the night's with you
And the storm's in your hand
And you're down and you're down
And I can't lift you

I'm powerless to change your world
I'm powerless to stop the hurt

(chorus)
I'll give you my heart give you my shoulder
I'll give you my heart give you my shoulder

Wanna run for you
Would it do any good?
If I flew for you
You would still be standing
And it's hard watching
Cause I'm part of you
And it's hard not to
Not go know what I can do

I'm powerless to change your world
I'm powerless to stop the hurt
I'm trying hard to be your tower of strength
I'm trying hard to bring you back to joy

(chorus)

When the night just cuts you through
And the dream is lost to you
When you're worried and confused
I will, give you my heart give you my shoulder
