"Vaseline" lyrics

Nobody knows what love means to me
Wherever I go I'm ill at ease

I'm faking a smile, live in denial, ready to dial, always on trial
Does everybody feel this empty?
Does anybody care what I'm saying now?
Anyhow, reality is dripping all around me

I've got a rock in my pocket, gonna break this glass
And cut myself loose from the upper class
It's a semi-charmed life with a box of pills for everything
My momma and my daddy kiss with apprehension
And I find that in my body there's just so much tension
I keep myself together 'till the things go smooth like
Vaseline
Vaseline

Nobody knows the troubles that I've seen
Wherever I go it gets harder to breathe

I'm faking a smile, live in denial, ready to dial, always on trial
Does everybody get this lonely?
Does anybody care what I'm saying now?
Anyhow, the vanity is swimming all around me

I've got a rock in my pocket
Gonna break this glass and cut myself loose from the upper class
It's a semi-charmed life with a box of pills for everything
My momma and my daddy kiss with apprehension
And I find that in my body there's just so much tension
I keep myself together 'till the things go smooth like
Vaseline
Vaseline

I've gotta get myself together, get myself together again
I've gotta get myself together, get myself together again

I've got a rock in my pocket
Gonna break this glass and cut myself loose from the upper class
'Cause it's a semi-charmed life with a box of pills for everything, for everything
My momma and my daddy kiss with apprehension
And I find that in my body there's just so much tension
I get myself together 'till the things go smooth like, things go smooth like
Things go smooth like Vaseline
Vaseline
