CHARLOTTE MARTIN lyrics : "In Parentheses"

State of pain like mercury
Hearing pink illusions
Gorgeous at 85, older at 23


I drink the water out of time
I said has anybody seen the whirlpool floating in my mind

I said has anybody seen
This is the low that I could find


I'm on solitary sand and
I've been stepped on by a man
But I've stood taller than I am

In parentheses

Beauty queens are very shy

More than lash than meets your eye
So she jumps then wants to fly
It¹s too late now I'm in denial


I'll get medieval on boy-bands
I said is anybody listening

The way life makes the nice girls fast
I said is anybody listening
It isn't just unlucky chance


And I'm on solitary sand
And I've had bull%#@! from a man

But found exactly who I am

I'll never be the vision of a girl who can write poetry

I'll never be the little black dress we¹ve seen on natalie b.
I'll never be 5'10", I'm barely 5'3"
I'm on solitary sand but in parentheses
