Picture perfect fantasies
Dressed up for the world to see
Hate cannot be seen on your painted face
and the smile made of lace.

Vanity is your affair
Designed for love beyond compare
tragic devotion in your eyes
none can hear your quiet cries.

They will bury you once you've aged
you think back on your life, for it was staged.

All you do is sit and smile
you've been there for what seems like a while.
Ten minutes, ten hours, ten days, ten years.
You cry your little porcelain tears.

Vanity is your affair
Designed for love beyond compare
tragic devotion in your eyes
None can hear your quiet cries.

What's wrong, dear hollow porcelain corpse?
There was a time when you were treated fair
The golden glow is never there

Designed for love, 
You melt my heart
Everything is so, so far
From what it seems to be made
That my love will never fade

Vanity is your affair
Designed for love beyond compare
Tragic devotion in your eyes
none can hear your, quiet cries.

How deep is beauty now,
Once you realize it's not there
How many are going to smile
At the love you'll never share.

All you do is sit and smile
you've been there for what seems like a while.
Ten minutes, ten hours, ten days, ten years.
You cry your little porcelain tears.
