Kalliope Jones Lyrics

I'm useless and I'm skinny 

But I'm extra weight

Got tiger eyes and I tell a good lie

They think I'm straight

Go and tell me that I'm ignorant

You don't have to tell me twice

Just cause I always listen when you think that you're right

​

My world is full of songs and lies

And empty grins

Grunge just doesn't cut it

When you're ruled by sin

Lipstick doesn't cover scars

You never knew were there

Secrets seem to disappear in games of truth or dare

​

I'm living a teenage nightmare

Who knows, I may not make it to the sunrise

I'm living just to get my fair share

And yet I'm stuck with the nightlight on

​

I'm walking down an empty road

My heart's in my through

The ink is dry, I lost my mind

Forgot what I wrote

So tell me, won't you hold me

When my knees go weak

Deceit in my pocket and your lips on my cheek

​

The water's wide, the sky is black

And I am alone

I'm slipping off my own two feet

And don't have a home

The door is closed, I lost the key

But I'm just fine

I'll never know the truth because the world keeps me blind
