Her life was magazines and faithful
TV screens selling an empty dream
Of cars and calories and everything in
between the sun and Saturn's ring
But the price tag can't
be seen
and it took
bites out of her insides
till she was just a hollow shell
C--
She grew up in east LA watching
celebrities living out
all of her dreams
The plastic canopy of US royalty
drew her gaze towards the
sky and away from her own mind
(Repeat Chorus)
And at home her mother
cried cause daddy
had something on the side
and they didn't look
up when she sighed oh!!!
C--
And when August came
around the bathing
suits were on the ground
replaced by a cotton cloak
To see her own reflection
was like squinting in the sun
And when all tomorrow brings is
a set if broken wings
(Repeat Chorus twice)
