starving narcissist - a mannequin story lyrics

Loading...

i just want to be a mannequin
i just want to be a mannequin

no bones that ache, no bleeding flesh
something human enough to hold a pen
press plastic fingers to a maple neck
bronze strings stretched over steel frets

a hollow body of emptiness
where nothing would ever hurt again
i just want to be a mannequin
i just want to be a mannequin

and i’d make art even after the world collapsed
it would all blow up or burn to ash
and i would remain among the scr+p
my faceless face of fiberglass

to roam the rubbles of cities past
a thousand signs of n0ble gas
post+apocalyptic cul+de+sacs
now entering: ozymandias

round the decay of that colossal wreck
i’d walk a hundred million steps
paint stories on the walls and then
write ballads recounting all of it
create until i turned to dust
more art than the sum of all of us
with no one left to make sense of
the stories i wrote or the songs i sung

i just want to lose me
i just want to lose me
i just want to lose me
i just want to lose me

in whatever way i can
