lyrics

Of course the grass is greener on your wealthy neighbor's lawn
When they pay a hefty sum to ship it and roll it on
To an outward source of happiness a simple mind is drawn
But they'll always end up lonely when the midnight finally dawns

To base your own self worth off your riches is deranged
Evaporate the ego in the hopes of saving face
Cause you wear a mask long enough it will soon erase
Your identity and happiness, leaving just a hollow frame

And that's such a shame

If it sparkles, they will buy it, ask no questions they will try it
Draw an "X" in front of that line, prick their fingers they will sign in blood
You're all just mindless pawns in a corporate, worldwide scheme
Practicing your dance moves while they laugh and pull your strings

I saw the devil in a red dress and I stole it's matching bag
It had nothing to offer that I didn't already have
I'll be on the outside, looking in, just shaking my head
While you search for all your answers in words already said

And that's such a shame
