Alabaster & Ivory
Pale
And
Lifeless
‘Cos there’s nothing I wouldn’t do
To feel the blood flow through my veins
I’m only pretending to care
So come and arrest me now
I want to be like you
I want to be you
But there’s nothing to prove
That white smile is yours
Painted on with paint
Gallons of the stuff
Or the makeup from your box
Which conceals hidden dangers
Sharp as the pain you bring me
With your aurora of alabaster and ivory
