Lyrics
She just killed the sun in a battle
they never fought
She was blinded and burned
but she see's things the same
She just took the moon by the hand
and then she spun him 'round
he laughed himself blue
and she was happy to be touching him
Behind pretty eyes lurks deception
Underneath all the clothes
you're not as whole as you seem
But image is everything (why would you lie to me)
image is everything (why did you lie)
How can you be so sweet everytime you lie to me
Just don't play me like I'm yours
you know that I am far too damaged to be proud of
and please just don't look at me that way
Chorus:
You get me so high
watching you breathe and feeling your slide
can we try it once again
Venus, venus
You get me so high
and I believed all of your lies
and then I died upon your bed
Venus, venus
She walks with such grace
She says there's gods that bear her name
She told me a few times but never once was it the same
You need to be seen look at me
You need to be seen look at me
Show the whole world you live life as a queen
Just don't play me like I'm yours
you know that I am far too damaged to be proud of
But image is everything why did you lie to me
Image is everything why did you lie
How can you be so sweet everytime you lie to me
You're little conquest has left you dry
and now you're damage is so much more than mine
and please just don't look at me that way
Chorus
And please just don't leave us
