Letra de Narcissus in a Red Dress
What a difference a day makes
Where a little girl once stood
Now sits an empty bass
Cold and shiny, hard and tiny
Difficult to wash away
Oh, monsters get created every day

And nothing can prepare you
For the day they run away
Your fine tutelage is no longer needed
So you sealed your fate
One minute she's your best friend
Then you watch her take your place
I guess I taught them all the same
You clever little charlatans
Ambition gleams in overdrive
And I can't take it

What goes up must come on down
Get your feet back on the ground
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest, miss
Blinded by your own reflection
Let the lies direct you now
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest
I know, I know

Behaving like the virgin queen
You're just as damaged underneath, you know
No matter how good your impersonation of me ever grows
Deep down you know your insides never change
But people love it, bad, base(?) and shameless, simply lacking taste
They fall for the spell of Lady Macbeth, her calculated grace
But I can see the hunger of compulsion in your face
High school skinny fades away
And you're just left with polaroids
Capturing your 15 minutes, ain't it great?

What goes up must come on down
Get your feet back on the ground
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest, miss
Blinded by your own reflection
Let the lies direct you now
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest
I know, I know

Vanity on parade, faking frantic and strange
Fraught with heartache and desperation
Guess I loved you in vain, consider this on your way
Lost your head to the elevation
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't bring you back again

What goes up must come on down
Get your feet back on the ground
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest, miss
Blinded by your own reflection
Let the lies protect you now
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest, miss
What goes up must come on down
Get your feet back on the ground
Narcissus in a red dress you're like all the rest, miss
Blinded by your own reflection
Let the lies protect you now
Narcissus in a red dress, you're like all the rest
I know, I know
