(I'm Your) Heroine

I traded in my mind for my body and soul Ramifications of my actions are I'll never grow old Hate to stand in front of you so exposed and bold Between the liquor and the glitter that we split on the floor Ingesting chemical swirls so we could be something more Remember watching you while you laid down on my floor Baby I'm not blaming you It's burning your insides Inhaling all their exhausting truths exhaling all their lies I packed up all my bags and threw them on a train The man who's checking all the stamps thinks that I've gone insane And everything around me's crowded by your cigarette And now you're looking like a beatnik with your sullen smile And you keep running 'round the train looking for a vile To fill your veins and make your mind run wild Maybe it's the vicious world That runs your bottle dry But I think I'm in love with you I'd hate to see you die You're taking 27 hours just to do your hair Making a statement in society that's going nowhere Give them 10 more years they'll all look just like you And still I stare at my reflection when I'm feeling sad Seeing the frown lines in the mirror makes me feel well glad Cause everything else I just f*ck up by mistake So let the crowds engulf themselves Cover them with lies Cause I don't think they will give you up, until their needles dry. La da da da dum I hope that you don't die Promise me, promise that you'll try Because I don't want to watch you go, oh no I don't want to watch you go Oh no, I don't want to watch you
