Please, idolise me

But I can't take credit for who I am

I have

Stolen traits and lyrics

From everyone, I've ever met

I'm a magpie

I see something I like and I take it

God knows what I really am

I'm a vampire

A sadist

Staring at the back of your head

And God knows I like the attention

It was what I was built to crave

I'm an artist

And therefore a fraud

I was never taught how to behave

I am a daughter turned thing

And I hope that you could see me that way

I will argue and cheat my way back home

Till I find an empty space to haunt and displace

Basically a ghost

I'm a magpie

I see something I like and I take it

God knows what I really am

I'm a vampire

A sadist

Staring at the back of your head

Sat in the attic basically a ghost

You don't know me at all

I'm waiting for the voice of God to make the call

I'm looking over you

But I love souls

In my arms eyeing them up like they're today's psalms

I liked the control

But now I've missed

I'll illuminate you on my deepest wish

It's to be loved or to be missed
