about

Trip-hop mixed with slightly discordant classical music to accompany an unusual lyric. A definite nod to one of my favorite songs from Scott 3.

lyrics

She only cries
Glycerin tears
She is emotionally numb
Acting for sympathy
Drowning in lethargy
A cripple in crimpolene
The strain of the party scene
The circles she moves between
Fighting her way from
Being a has-been

No-one will remember her
When she is gone
She only flickered
Rather than shone

She only cries
Glycerin tears
She is emotionally numb
She knows her destiny
Is living in yesterday's memories
She has no real friends
Just social acquaintances
Maybe that's why
She only cries
Glycerin tears

Maybe that's why
She only cries
Glycerin tears
(repeat to fade)
