From the recording All That Lies Beneath
Lyrics
All that Lies Beneath by dk black
See the pretty girl, she’s posing for a picture
Watch her strike a pose her life is so much richer
Than you could dream of or ever scheme of
Praying for a glance, babe you never stood a chance
See the pretty boy, he likes to be a pop star
Playing to the crowd, and posing with his guitar
Watch him work it, life is perfect
And you know it’s true, he’s got it all over you
See what’s really going on, our senses have the whole thing wrong
What’s underneath does not belong, delusion blindly leads us on
All that lies beneath can’t even breath, can’t even face the light of day
See the magic man he’s got it all together
Smokin’ trophy wife and cash to last forever
Watch him earn it, watch him burn it
Baby don’t forget, what he’s got you’ll never get
See what’s really going on, our senses have the whole thing wrong
What’s underneath does not belong, delusion blindly leads us on
All that lies beneath can’t even breath, can’t even face the light and
All that lies beneath begins to bleed, can’t even face the light of day
Every now and then I see a little drop of clarity
The other half may not be whole, but each of us still knows our role
We sugar-coat and analyze, committing karmic suicide
That sweet, seductive blade of grass is something that nobody’s ever had
All that lies beneath can’t even breath, can’t even face the light and
All that lies beneath begins to bleed, is not quite right and
All that lies beneath is half deceased, can’t even face the light of day
