Dressed Up — текст песни (mustard plug)

I don`t know how it started but it can`t end too soon
The way the tide is turning I think you`re singing the wrong tune
You`re addicted to an image you can never attain
The time and money spent enough to drive me insane
You`re fronting like a billboard but easier to read
An ounce of introspection is what you probably need
You don`t have care
Your bandwagon`s rolling but it`s going nowhere

I`m not buying in
You`ll be all alone
You`re all dressed up
With no place to go

I`m lookin` through the pages of a magazine
My stomach nearly turns at the images I see
A plastic persona fronts on every page
My blood starts to boil, I border on rage
Could you really be so jaded just to throw yourself away
I know what I see, cause I see it everyday
it`s so plain to see
You`re just another product, a commodity

So long ago, I knew you then
The truth be told, we were the closest of friends
And you were so much more than you`ll ever know
So much deeper than appearances show
But you traded all you had for a glossy shine
And you choke down insincerity like vintage wine
Just thinkin` back to the friend I knew
I wish that things were different cause I won`t be fooled
No more

It`s only human nature
And I`m the same way
But if I had the chance
I`d throw it all away!
