Terrific

LETRA

Terrific

Strange how things can change
how your consciousness can fade
reason can't compete
with the drug shares your name

And there you are on cue with the lifeboats
waving at strangers, wearing your name out
it does your head in, confiscates meaning
but don't arrested, they can't posses you

You are not yourself, dear
you are someone else, dear
aren't you terrific?
aren't you terrific now?

All the world applauds
to the popular tricks you choose
but who are they to stop
when your hands are clapping too

And you believe that it's an achievement
scratching them when they have no feeling

You are not yourself, dear
you are someone else, dear
aren't you terrific?
aren't you terrific now?

It was you...
who spoke out when no-one heard
oh yeah
you're not as pure as you were
vanity hangs by threads

And right now I wish
some things were undone
fixes, natural, eyes in the spun
this is not the time
to give up yourself to anyone

You are not yourself, dear
you are someone else, dear
aren't you terrific?
aren't you terrific now?

Can you saw yourself, dear?
you would be amazed, dear
aren't you terrific?
finally terrific now
