Vanity Decay

​(Verse 1) Pineapple skin and a cheap box cutter I’m a stuttering mess in the bread and butter You’re a charcoal sketch, I’m a neon blur Tracing the static where the feelings were (Is it loud enough? Is it cold enough?) We’re just fruit flies on a rotting peach Heaven is a ceiling fan just out of reach. ​(Pre-Chorus) And the synths start bleeding through the floorboards Like a gospel choir hitting all the wrong chords. ​(Chorus) So put your hands on the vanity, feel the decay We’re the kings of the kitchen till the sun turns grey I’ve got a "Mr. Brightside" heart in a "Science Fiction" head Tracing every single wicked thing you never said Oh, it’s a beautiful catastrophe! Honey, pass the kerosene. ​(Verse 2) Clean the blood off the Fender, it’s a holy rite We’re just shadows dancing in a halogen light You taste like copper and a long-lost grudge I’m the jury, the witness, and the hanging judge (Did you want a savior? Or just a place to hide?) Pull the ribs apart, let the nectar slide. ​(Bridge) (Whispered) I am a stone, I am a sinking ship. (Shouted) I’M THE GLOSS ON YOUR LIP! I’m the crack in the glass where the light gets in Let the feedback loop and the ritual begin! ​(Outro) Stay gold, stay plastic. It’s tragic... it’s fantastic. (Fades out with a distorted, warbling synth loop
