Lined up, one by one To play the toy soldiers of vain corporation Negotiating one-on-one, accept our price and the deal is done Are you entertained now? Let the karma rain down I can play Pierrot if it means I’ll be the last clown Living in the twisted diorama that is industry Fail, and we’re in the streets Have the very best, the supreme Another transformation tonight for all of ya Join me and dream with me, Freaker Pretend everything’s fine, Work Hard, Play Harder I’m with you Let’s Dig In Mirror, Mirror Tell me again If it was fated that I made it, or a stroke of luck? Louder, Clearer Just say that I’m enough You lie so well Hook me with one word Hate to be the one to break the fairytale apart But the cautious optimism isn’t what I’d label smart Drop dead, nobody cries stop now, and fall behind every idle beauty’s got a beast inside her mind Attention, attention Clippings of a magazine of things you said but didn’t mean It’s reading like a ransom letter Full of stains you’ll never clean Or wash away, how laughable That’s just what life is like Took on the duties, give up and rest in peace? Masochism and fakery rule showbiz Feel like I’m no longer myself The haters always complain from a safe space With responsibility, the goods are on the shelf, you love it! The jealousy and envy is no skin off my back, I don’t care Can’t take the wheel, the price goes up The ugly plotting of wants off the ride, WTF SOS, who am I? The shadow born from the light Oh, Mirror, Mirror Louder, Clearer The reaper prays to god as well The ideal job performed every night in hell Whether by destiny or miracle Oh!! You lie so well Mirror, Mirror Where is my real self, Where is? The credits work together, follow the leader We are slackers on the job of Reaper Vibing with the beats, Work hard, Play harder Making the big brains happy, the floor gets hyper Ya Breaking DADA With me, victory is assured time after time Our taste is refined, the only souls we need are the nice and the fine Prepare to die! Digi Digi Da Good Job MIC CHECK Arriving from Hell, the idol of rhyme Going for gold on a beat that’s cold The religion spreads, takes in more and more Seduction is our profession Cameras still follow the irrelevant You only gotta sell a bit You only gotta get out of your shell a bit And if you ever make it, better hope that you can take it With your soul as good as naked It’s a living, or a curse to break? “It’s just business.” Mirror, Mirror Tell me again If it was fated that I made it, or a stroke of luck? Louder, Clearer Just say that I’m enough You lie so well Hook me with one word Is this paradise or hell? I might be faking I hate it Might be loving living outta control Let the record spin on like a carousel Oh my god, it’s a mad, mad world It’s a paradise, the stories you wanna see are my forte If you want me to steal your gaze, ask and ye shall receive, From now on
