Glitterproof (Keep Your Smoke & Mirrors to Yourself)

V4.5

[Verse] I’ll proofread your memos I’ll polish your streams I’ll type up your whispers Your half-baked schemes But don’t play me a fool Don’t make me believe In castles of paper that the wind will retrieve [Chorus] Don’t make me fall for your glittering haze Don’t sell me stars that will burn in two days I’m no puppet No string-bound queen Keep your magic tricks where they’ve been [Verse 2] You write up the future It glows in your pen But I’ve seen the ink fade Again and again You’re weaving a story But it’s paper-thin And I’m not the girl to get lost within [Chorus] Don’t make me fall for your glittering haze Don’t sell me stars that will burn in two days I’m no puppet No string-bound queen Keep your magic tricks where they’ve been [Bridge] I’ll type up your dreams I’ll tidy your prose But I won’t chase illusions That’s how it goes Your promises shimmer But they always fade Like rainbows that vanish In the mess they’ve made [Chorus] Don’t make me fall for your glittering haze Don’t sell me stars that will burn in two days I’m no puppet No string-bound queen Keep your magic tricks where they’ve been
