Mirrors Monster

I wear my scars like diamond rings, A perfect mask, a thousand strings. You love the shine, you love the lie — Just don’t look close, or you might cry. Mirror, mirror, don’t you see The monster hiding behind me? I’m the star you love to hate! A glitter ghost, a synthetic fate! You can’t look away, you can’t turn off the light — I’m the nightmare you call “delight”! My smile’s a stitch, my eyes are glass, A living doll, a hollow mass. You cheer the show, you feed the flame Just don’t ask what’s underneath the name. Spotlight, spotlight, burn so bright — But the dark’s my only right. I’m the star you love to hate! A glitter ghost, a synthetic fate! You can’t look away, you can’t turn off the light — I’m the nightmare you call “delight”! «Smile for the cameras, darling Even monsters need their fans.» «I am… I am… not real…» «Star… ghost… nightmare… delight…» I’m the star you love to hate! A glitter ghost, a synthetic fate! You can’t look away, you can’t turn off the light —I’m the nightmare you call “delight”!
