Candy

[Verse 1]

Remember the day you came to me and said you found the truth

And I turned away and told you should take another look?

You said you'd see what's going on

I know you trust, but something’s wrong

[Chorus]

We have our lives to bear

Our bags to burden

But we just buy and we wear

The plastic version of

Love, hope, understanding

But we can't survive on candy

[Verse 2]

Red carpet ride can take your mind away from anything

And I wanna die at every mention of “celebrity”

Like “Who’s doing who”

Just how and where

Long as it’s not you

I just don’t care

[Chorus]

We have our lives to bear

Our bags to burden

But we just buy and we wear

The plastic version of

Love, hope, understanding

But we can't survive on candy

[Bridge]

Running far away from all your serious concerns

I know you’ve learned to you use your fairytales

To get you through the hurt

Who’s falling? We’re falling

And there’s just no climbing back

So I'm slowin' I'm stallin'

While I’m under full attack

[Chorus]

We have our lives to bear

Our bags to burden

But we just buy and we wear

The plastic version of

Love, hope and understanding

But we can’t survive on candy

On candy

On candy

On candy

We can’t survive, can’t survive on candy
