Vanity Skies
Lyrics & music by
Rick Springfield & Matt Bissonette
Yellow plaster
cracking
Above my eyes
Umbrella vaccine
Shoot me up inside
Only television
Gonna make it right
Cinderella passing
Is blowing my mind
Beyond that crystal
Do you find it
superficial
When it detonates a
nation
Though it's not your
imagination
See a master crashing
You've served that
kind
Beneath the roof collapsing
Fight all your despise
Phony mass submission
Wanna flee or fight
Black veil unmasking
Keep blowing my mind
Inside that pistol
Is a supersonic
missile
Like a frightful home
invasion
Yeah it's worth a
conversation
Oh humanity finds
Nothing inside vanity
skies
So dramatically high
Only to find there's
nothing there
Lying and buying and
trying and dying
To get to nowhere
On a massive mission
Kill the beast tonight
In this man's
condition
It's all black and
white
With a twisted vision
Will it burn my sight
Like a lone assassin
Still blowing my mind
Beyond that crystal
Do you find it
superficial
When it detonates a
nation
Though it's not your
imagination
Inside that pistol
Is a supersonic
missile
Like a frightful home
invasion
Yeah it's worth a
conversation
Oh humanity finds
Nothing inside vanity
skies
So dramatically high
Only to find there's
nothing there
Oh you tragically try
So hard to fly where
gravity hides
Go calamity eyes
Look over there
there's so much to fear
Oh humanity kind
All is a lie vanity
sky
So dramatically high
Hope you will find
there's nothing there
Oh you tragically try
Pray you will find
where gravity hides
Go calamity eyes
Look over here there's
nothing to fear
Lying and buying and
trying and dying
To get to nowhere
