Porcelain Gods

Beware false prophets, take a stand My fortune cookie cracked up in my hand More advice to fill up your head More empty words from the living dead Seek to explain what can't really be said How disappointed I was To turn out after all Just a porcelain God That shatters when it falls Too much will kill you, too little ain't enough You shout my name but I'll call, you're bluff Most who see me, see me not for real We fake and fawn, playing games 'til dawn I could see, oh, what you can see Yeah, and I hate too, oh, what you hate in me How disappointed I am To find me part of no plan Just a porcelain God That shatters when it falls, yeah When it falls, yeah, yeah I shake it off and start again Don't lose control, I tell myself Life can take many things away Some people will try and take it all They'll pick off pieces as they watch you crawl How disappointed I was To turn out after all Just a porcelain God That shatters when it falls Shatters when it falls Beware false prophets, take a stand My fortune cookie cracked up in my hand
