Story Behind the Song
replacing one fake vice with another. When you realize it you should go straight into denial cause it's the best thing to do ....right?! AHHHHHH!
Lyrics
Placebo
Addicted to the bright placebo
It’s shinning in my viewing room.
I’m twitching carbon on a couch,
Remote in hand and life is good…
One day my glacier girl,
She came sliding carving up everything
I’m witnessing a slow motion, flipbook catastrophe.
Oh, it’s on me, above me, below me, all around me,
Inside me, underneath me
unimagine everything you thought it would be.
Bring it down
Keep it low
Underneath yourself
I keep missing the real thing…
while I’ve been kissing my placebo
She’s sneaky like Vesuvio
She’ll sleep for a hundred years so.
When you let your armour down
She’ll start her famous lava flow.
One day she’s glorified
One day we’re horrified
One day she’s sweating hotter than the bright round, round red, red sun
See it run
Bring it down
Keep it low
Underneath yourself
I keep missing the real thing…
while I’ve been kissing my placebo
addicted to a blonde placebo
she’s singing a familiar tune
we’re twitching carbon on a bed,
making love in the evening moon…
…see her soon
