Remember the day you came to me and said you found the truth?
And I turned away and told you should take another look?
You said you'd see what's going on

I know you trust but something's wrong

We have our lives to bear

Our bags to burden
But we just buy and we wear
The plastic version of

Love, hope, understanding
But we can't survive on candy


Red carpet ride
Can take your mind
Away from anything

And I wanna die
At every mention of ?celebrity?
Like ?who's doing who?

Just how and where
Long as it's not you
I just don't care


We have our lives to bear
Our bags to burden

But we just buy and we wear
The plastic version of
Love, hope, understanding

But we can't survive on candy

Running far away from all your serious concerns

I know you've learned to you use your fairytales
To get you through the hurt
Who's falling? We're falling

And there's just no climbing back
So I'm slowin', I'm stallin'
While I'm under full attack


We have our lives to bear
Our bags to burden

But we just buy and we wear
The plastic version of
Love, hope and understanding

But we can't survive on candy
On candy
On candy

On candy
We can't survive, can't survive on candy
