Perfection is Poison
Pretty girls
Wearing bloodstained pearls
Walk the streets of NYC
Did you see what you did to me?
It’s poison, it’s poison
Felt like a beautiful disgrace
Tears fall down my mascara face
Life is such a masquerade
And today’s the day of the big parade
It’s poison, it’s poison
There’s no such thing as vanity
As long as you stick with me
But then you left,
Your cold-hearted theft,
It was poison, it was poison
I died with blood-red lipstick on
After the ball, at the crack of dawn
My body fell, light as a feather
But sadness gripped me tight as leather
The poison, the poison
You ripped my dress
You will never confess
How you offered me champagne
That cold night in the rain
It was poison, it was poison
And now pretty girls
Still wear bloodstained pearls
But my zombie head still holds the crown
I’ll find you someday and take you down
With poison…
With poison.

also, I'm into sci-fi horror stories and i thought it would be interesting to see it from a dead person's point of view. Especially a dead person who used to be one of the 'it' girls.
