lyrics

Glistening you wear the summer beautifully
Accessorize in skin just to draw me in
Basting in suntan lotion marinade of coconuts and gin
Just to draw me in
And watch me fall apart
Well there's a start to getting deep inside your heart to stay
Or turn away if that's not what you're going through today

Truth or dare
I dare you just to tell the truth about your latest dare
Crashing scenes with Lucky Strikes and limousines and
Wondering why they stare
To watch you fall apart
Well there's a start to getting deep inside your heart to stay
Or turn away if that's not what you're going through today

Shivering you wear your beauty honestly
Accessorize in skin
Rolling eyes turned upward toward the garish skies
And pause to take them in
And know you've done me in
And watched me fall apart
Well there's a start to getting deep inside your heart to stay
Or turn away if that's not what you're going through today
