Porcelain Doll |
|
Tried to be an angel |
|
| Dancing as you pleased. | |
| I tried to fill your life with light | |
| Forgetting who was me. | |
| Paid the price, | |
| Starved my soul, | |
| I’ll never be the same. | |
| Honey, I endure quite easily. | |
Chorus: |
|
| If you could construct a doll, | |
| I’m sure you would. | |
| Porcelain and fragile, | |
| Easy to critique. | |
| Well I’m sorry I’m cold, | |
| And I’m sorry I’m weak. | |
| But honey I don’t break that easily. | |
I listened oh so cautiously. |
|
| I followed all the rules. | |
| And when human frailty | |
| Exposed its face, | |
| My own seemed to fade. | |
| Porcelain doll built carefully | |
| But vulnerable to the pain. | |
| Honey, I endure quite easily. | |
Repeat Chorus |
|
| Failed attempts with one light left | |
| Shining too far away. | |
| He said “hold on dear, | |
| It’s coming near” | |
| And forced an early glow. | |
| Crying little porcelain doll. | |
| Afraid to let him down. | |
| Honey I endure quite easily. | |
Repeat Chorus |
|
| Honey, I endure quite easily |
