Lyrics
You let them open it up real wide Then you let everyone come inside There's always something you got to hide So you lied and you lied and you lied Make sure you grab everything that you need You got a hole that you got to feed Keep trying to fill it all up with your greed But it bleeds and it bleeds and it bleeds Go take a little more We'll scrape you off the floor We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now A great big superstar Is what you think you are We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now Nobody burns quite as bright Well goddamn, maybe you're right There's always battles all for you to fight And you might, you might, you just might But there is something I got to say There is a price you're going to pay Try as hard as you can to stay But you're just fading, and fading, and fading, and fading away Go take a little more We'll scrape you off the floor We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now A great big superstar Is what you think you are We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now Go take a little more We'll scrape you off the floor We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now A great big superstar Is what you think you are We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now Go turn the lights down low The cracks begin to show We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now Soon you will be gone We will all be torn We love you anyhow But you're not so pretty now
