Marketplace Lyrics

I watch you glimmer under stage lights

Your expressions feeding fantasies

I'm wondering what it'd feel like

If you spared a glance to notice me

Well maybe in my next life

Your eyes could be trained on mine

I won't think about your smile

How much it makes me wanna die

But I sit here and wait patiently

For the day I'll be able to breathe

Without wondering if and how

I could get past your cloud

But for now

I wish there were a marketplace

To buy or borrow a new face

I'd pick out different colored eyes

Then maybe someone would realize

I'm standing right in front of them

I wouldn't have to break and bend

I'd smile just like you always

And put everyone in daze

I'd be the distraction

Attract attention, heaven sent

I'd beg for your reaction

That look you give makes me a wreck

I'm lost when you're in action

Like nails digging into my skin

Your gaze makes me feel so pathetic

Never knew my flesh was oh so thin

But I sit here and wait patiently

For the day I'll be able to breathe

Without wondering if and how

I could get past your cloud

But for now

Sweet angel, a goddess

Yet you're so fucking modest

I'm forever the artist

But never the muse
