Strange world of twisted mirrors,
Game show life of glittering stars
And shiny teeth.
I run blind through this maddening world,
Terrified and afraid.
All around me the world is cold and warped,
I reach out blindly,
Stumble and fall.
Run to that private dungeon,
Tear out the food to feed my pain,
To fill me up with emptiness,
Only to crave that hollow hole,
Put life in reverse again.
Everywhere I look they won't leave me -
Crisps, fries, chocolate, cream,
All the while the whispers say "NO!"
Hands over ears won't shut it out,
Desperate craving and tortured mind -
I must I must no I won't.
It makes no sense.
I'm running for the door,
I'm scrabbling on the wood,
But my nails leave no mark,
The world has gone again.
Fill up the empty hole within,
Empty it out again.
Whirling round on a merry-go-round
Nothing makes sense.
Eat, Eat, Eat they command,
Then tell you to starve.
Skeletons walking tall down catwalks,
Bitter, twisted faces
Looking so grim.
Collapse in fear and don't know where,
Look around where am I gone?
I look in the mirror,
But there's nobody there.
Who is this face looking back at me?
That can't be me, can it?
I am a fallen thing without shape,
Crashing through the world without hope.
Hands over eyes won't keep out the light,
Images dance in the depths of the night.
Where am I? I cry,
But when I look in the mirror,
There's nobody there.
Those eyes - they can't be mine;
Those lips those THIGHS
Who is this looking back at me?
Jump on the whirligigs again,
Colours spinning wild in my head.
Scramble for the door again,
Need to fill that space inside.
Nothing matters now.
I try I try to fight but it makes no sense
That when I look in the mirror,
There's nobody there.
