Lyrics

  You let them open it up real wide
  Then you let everyone come inside
  There's always something you got to hide
  So you lied and you lied and you lied
  
  Make sure you grab everything that you need
  You got a hole that you got to feed
  Keep trying to fill it all up with your greed
  But it bleeds and it bleeds and it bleeds
  
  Go take a little more
  We'll scrape you off the floor
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  A great big superstar
  Is what you think you are
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  
  Nobody burns quite as bright
  Well goddamn, maybe your right
  There's always battles all for you to fight
  And you might, you might, you just might
  
  But there is something I got to say
  There is a price your going to pay
  Try as hard as you can to stay
  But your just fading, and fading, and fading, and fading away
  
  Go take a little more
  We'll scrape you off the floor
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  A great big superstar
  Is what you think you are
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  
  Go take a little more
  We'll scrape you off the floor
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  A great big superstar
  Is what you think you are
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  
  Go turn the lights down low
  The cracks begin to show
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
  Soon you will be gone
  We will all be torn
  We love you anyhow
  But your not so pretty now
