Blood red lips whisper lies of love into my heart
I can’t help but marvel at this brilliant work of art
A megalomaniac masterpiece for the whole world to see
A poisonous perfect princess posing and parading for the paparazzi
Merely another mannequin sadly starring in a motion picture masquerade
But my feelings for her will never fade
The cameras are rolling and she whispers those three words as we begin to undress
Falling in love and foolishly forgetting the fact that she is only an actress
…I never wanted to have to say “goodbye”
But it hurts even more to live this lie…
The corrupted carpet has never been so bright
Winning infinite awards for a mistaken reality that was simply a dream
I shed a tear as I realize that everything you said to me was from a script that you didn’t even write
Lights, Camera, Kiss…and we roll on with the scene
Blood red lies I can taste on my lips
Every single time the Devil I kiss
And with a sinning smile she hisses in my ear
“Don’t worry baby, there is nothing to fear”
She hands me an apple and compels me to take a bite
Assuring me once again that everything will be alright
But I start to taste the poison and I collapse to the floor
Another fallen victim of the Hollywood Whore
…Along with our memories, please bury me
Remembering all those times you said you’d marry me…
The California carpet has never been dyed this red
Lust and deception smeared onto the silver screen
Your name is written in blood above my deathbed
Lights, Camera, Kill…and we forever exit the scene
…I never wanted to have to say “goodbye”
But it hurts even more to live this lie…
