Stay Pretty

Well, you've been living a lie by your own admission

My patience has been hard enough to fake

And the secrets you save for your new physician

Are leaving me with one ear on the safe

And the holes in your story increase suspicion

Your witnesses have all been on the take

And we can give it a gamble under one condition

You'll have to take your foot off the, foot off the brake

So give up and give in and start over again

But be honest, cause you're all I need

It's pathetic

Why can't we get it straight?

Well, you've been compromised by your new position

They're looking up your skirt, for heavens sake

And your army of fakes that refuse to listen

Will end up in designer, shallow graves

It's true

The torture and tears have become tradition

But the something on the side is what takes the cake

And the surplus of uppers and apparitions

Are the only things that keep me up, keep me awake

So give up and give in and start over again

But be honest, cause you're all I need

It's pathetic

Why can't we get it straight?

So stay up and stay in

Yeah, I'll say it again

Look beyond this

There's a big picture that you're missing

Framed by the first mistake

By the bags under your eyes

I can see that you've packed for the week

So hang up this shit for the neighbors to see

Writing won't save the world

So you best stay pretty, girl

So give up and give in and start over again

But be honest, cause you're all I need

It's pathetic

Why can't we get it straight?

So stay up and stay in

Yeah, I'll say it again

Look beyond this

There's a big picture that you're missing

Framed by the first mistake

By the first mistake

By the first mistake

Framed by the first mistake
