Dolls

from Garbage by Stephen Harper

lyrics

You want to be skinny
You want to be thin
You gorge and vomit just to fit in
You need to indulge in the latest threads
Lay your head on indiscriminate beds

Feeling so cool
Playing the fool
But skin and bone
Home alone

Fall through the cracks
Flat frame slips through openings
Shatter like a porcelain doll
Roll up your sleeves take the fall

Hang your mask from the rafters
There is no "forever after"
Blackened arm and track marks sing
Songs of what could have been

Frozen, little boy crying
Desire to thaw but cryogenic
Dark room red light
Basement under the stairs

Burning skull, the child screams
Make it stop melt the scalp
Fire cracker cranial opening
Skin melting, seizure impending

Sealing the cracks in your skin
Grinding your teeth against the grain

Basement under the stairs
