A somewhat inviting, very different of kind of hell.
To live, without ever looking at yourself.
You see life is so much simpler when it's balanced on a shelf.
That's been unperfectly placed there in the sun.
Now look at how your admired by everyone,
Who sees you.
Now they know your name.
But is it real?
All your bad habits have become your life's appeal
And then it's where did you go wrong,
Where did you go wrong?
When you're screaming where did you go wrong,
Where did you go wrong?
Well first of all, and worst of all.
You looked inside yourself, didn't care much for what you saw,
For what you saw,
Can you imagine,
Did you ever play with dolls?
You can protect your cotton heartbeat on the skin of porcelain walls.
You keep staring to your future through these marble eyes they show,
Everything I'm never ever gonna have,
That's a giant pill,
But swallow if you can.
You'll start again,
You'll change your name and be reborn
And give in to all that has been torn.
And then it's where did you go wrong,
Where did you go wrong?
When you're screaming where did you go wrong,
Where did you go wrong?
Well first of all, and worst of all.
You looked inside yourself, didn't care much for what you saw,
For what you saw
