Balanced On A Shelf

[Verse 1]

A somewhat inviting, very different kind of hell

To live without ever looking at yourself

You see life is so much simpler when it's balanced on a shelf

That's been hung perfectly placed there in the sun

Now look at how you're admired by everyone

Who sees you, now they know your name

But is it real?

All your bad habits have become your life's appeal

[Chorus]

And then it's where did you go wrong?

Where did you go wrong?

You're screaming where did you go wrong?

Where did you go wrong?

Well first of all and worst of all

You looked inside yourself, didn't care much for what you saw

For what you saw

[Verse 2]

Can you imagine, did you ever play with dolls?

You can protect your cotton heart behind a skin of porcelain walls

You keep staring to your future through these marble eyes they show

Everything you're never, ever gonna have

That's a giant pill, but swallow if you can

You'll start again, you'll change your name and be reborn

And begin to mend all that has been torn

[Chorus]

And then it's where did you go wrong?

Where did you go wrong?

You're screaming where did you go wrong?

Where did you go wrong?

Well first of all and worst of all

You looked inside yourself, didn't care much for what you saw

For what you saw
