Vanity Songtext

von Strung Out

Did you leave a light on for me, did you pray I'd find my way?
Did you call out to me from the dark, did you really think I'd stay?
Did you feel me when the hurt rolled in, did you roll your pretty eyes?
Did that feeling rise up from within, did it take you by surprise?

You know you're better off without me.
Eyes like yours could always give you away.
There were times when I needed you to be on my side.
Through these eyes that world just died, a new one's born.

Well you murder me with pink and blue, a possession in a box for you.
Valentines and hand grenades, secret words and serenades.
Symbiotic mass destruction, we're directionless and vain.
Can you feel it when it comes around?
Can you feel it takes you by surprise?

You know you're better off without me.
Eyes like yours could always give you away.
There were times when I needed you to be on my side.
Through these eyes now I sit and watch the end of the world.

At the bottom of the ocean I sit and wait alone
For a chance to breathe the life into my lungs.
Now I feel like myself again
As I beat myself against you one more time, one more time.
Surprise.

You know you're better off without me.
Eyes like yours could always give you away.
There were times when I needed you to be on my side.
Through these eyes now I sit and watch the end of the world.
The end of the world.
The end of the world.
The end of the world.
