lyrics

You've got a new dress, you're a quick change actress
your lipstick slides out of it's sheath
you're my neon veined, day-glo dame, how do you speak
with your tongue pressed so tight to your teeth?

we've got a lot of dead friends on this rock where we're floating
there's darkness ahead, but I think it's worth noting
we're candles, we're matches, we're lights on a wire
so come with me, please, be my sylph set on fire

In all honesty I expected to be
exceptionally unimpressed
I do not trust kindness, in kindnesses, lies are hid
and oft topped with makeup, and winningly dressed

but you've got a mind, and if you don't mind me saying
it resides in beauty not slightly betraying
you luminesce, I confess, I guess you're no liar
so come with me, please, be my sylph set on fire
