The hooker in the mirror red lipstick smeared over her face
Staring hopelessly while losing count of her regrets
When daddy made her woman and nothing’s ever been the same
Waiting all these years for someone to relieve the blame
Rich woman in the mirror perfect make up on her face
Questioning that something missing from her silver cage
Priceless golden bracelet making up for empty soul
An ever lasting longing for someone real at the door
The questions always rising the answers never fall
The sense in senseless lives the chasers of a lure,
Spinning around the bulb of life like butterflies
Pursuit of happiness, the fear of loneliness
You never break the pattern you foolish Freudian clown,
He died for all our sins but I still wear the thorn crown,
Considering the world it doesn’t look like Love has won…
We are anguished butterflies converting fluttering to reason…
Frozen and detached the hooker gratifies the men
The rich woman enrolled her broken heart in charities
Self delusion is sweet, healing wounds, taking care
But the blame is still there every night, everywhere
The cage door is open but I won’t fly
Gloom and routine are safer for now
Outside of blame nothing’s foregone
And I’m scared of….
The questions always rising the answers never fall
The sense in senseless lives the chasers of a lure,
Spinning around the bulb of life like butterflies
Pursuit of happiness, the fear of loneliness
It’s round, so wrong and round, this vicious cycle, we never break out,
You never break the pattern you foolish freudian clown,
He died for all our sins but I still wear the thorn crown,
I’m squirming on the ground to shake away the blame
To go back to the baby I was and ease his pain
Am I strong enough to love him? To show him a new life?
Assure him he is safe now as they turn off the lights?
And can I come again from time to time to watch him sleep?
On her day off the hooker goes down to the beach
Sun is rising the waves gently cover her feet
A rich woman, white dress strolls along the shore
Seagulls cry flying over the calm blue sea…
