……it would start like this:

VERSE 1
Looking-glass people with black eyes
Despair of the way that I want to be
Anyone can see that I’m only trying to be myself again
But yesterday told me that I wasn’t perfect
That I’m not enough for someone like you and your crew
I’m the fool who sits and bleeds and waits for you…

BRIDGE 1
To feed me a morsel, drop me a breadcrumb or two
As if it could keep me from eating my insides

CHORUS
Just get away from me! Don’t touch my skin, ’cause I’m hollow
From all the pain – you’re a bitter pill to swallow
Just get away from me! I’ll be a good girl tomorrow
But today, I’ll go insane – I’m a bitter pill to swallow.

VERSE 2
I laugh it all off, but sometimes
These secrets wanna break out of my head
What you gave to me was a burden I didn’t deserve, yeah
And yesterday told me that I was just useful
For when you wanted to offload your pain and your problems
You never reciprocated my love for you

BRIDGE 2
I’m a ghost in your house and I’m a thought without a consequence
No one explaining these things, now you’re absent

CHORUS
Just get away from me! Don’t touch my skin, ’cause I’m hollow
From all the pain – you’re a bitter pill to swallow
Just get away from me! I’ll be a good girl tomorrow
But today, I’ll go insane – I’m a bitter pill to swallow.
