"Vanity Shot" lyrics

"Vanity Shot"

Fame is like a funeral
Trading my body, selling my soul

Pose for the pain, let the flash go off
Make it look rich when your soul gets lost
Love looks cheap when the lights come on
But still knows how to turn me on

So take another vanity shot
(Take another)
You hope and pray the damage will stop
It's a curse you can't escape
(You can't escape)
So take another vanity shot
(Take another)
Looks perfect 'til the magic wears off
Guess that's the curse of being fake

Sex is like a sinful spell
Out of my body, its own kind of hell

Falling in love with who I'm not
Spiraling when the cameras stop
Love looks cheap when the lights come on
But still knows how to turn me on

So take another vanity shot
(Take another)
You hope and pray the damage will stop
It's a curse you can't escape
(You can't escape)
So take another vanity shot
(Take another)
Looks perfect 'til the magic wears off
Guess that's the curse of being fake

Just a touch of poison maybe
Love and hate and validate me
Cancel out the noise and save me

Tell me I'm your favorite fake thing
Turn the hurt into a daydream
I don't care if it destroys me

I guess I'll take another vanity shot
And hope and pray that the damage will stop
A curse I can't escape
