Lyrics

PURE ENTERTAINMENT

Ask me how I’m doing
I’ll say I’m doing fine
“cause you don’t really care
About my state of mind
Background to debauchery
Soundtrack to a screw
You’re not here for me
I am here for you

Bodies writhe
Quenching solitude
Lonely on the stage but feeling gratitude

I’m pure entertainment
That you borrow to fill the space
Pure entertainment
You devour but cannot taste
Pure entertainment
To get you through the night
But you never pay the price
Like or dislike

Tame me with a bottle
Choke me on a line
Drown me in your rhythm
Lose in my time
Spin me in confusion
To dull the needle prick
I sought to be magician but
Ended up a trick

I danced to your cattle call
Eyes shut didn’t feel the fall
Couldn’t show you tears
I had to stand tall
Starving for a hand from you
To back beat away the blues
Bowing out of shame still feeling gratitude
