Look in the mirror

What do you see?

See the face I painted for you?

Or the one you let them see?

What do you see?

Is it you or is it me?

Do you see a reflection at all?

Vampire that you are?

Maybe it is shattered

For seven years

You've been luckless

Now fuckless

Maybe you see

Maybe you don't

Muted colors Steady rhythm You tell me to crank it up loud You miss the nuance You miss the steady bassline I don't fit your cookie-cutter girl The lines are all wrong My soft tunes are old fashion My road leads me elsewhere So you can't see my passion You tell me Liberate yourself You tell me Be a real woman But if I were a real woman Would I need you To cut along the dotted line To press and fold me Into the shapes you like? If I was a real woman Would I need you to write my code? If I wasn't a real woman Would I be writing this at all?

Today I read about the end of the world

I read it in newsprint

Curled up in my bed

It came with a flash

It came in the middle of the night

Snuck in like a thief

And stole it all away

Today I read about the end of the world

It's scheduled to happen soon

They can't tell you the date quite yet

But they know it's coming soon

Tomorrow may never come

But I will never know

Yesterday may be the last time

The last time I see my sister

The last time I see the sunset

Tomorrow may never come

Because today may be all I have

Today I read about the end of the world

Now I wait and hold my breath
