It's a fake
It's a hoax
It's a nowhere road where no one goes
Anywhere
Anyhow
Where you're following your heart right down

She's a rose
She's a queen
But she's staring at a magazine
In the dark
On that path
Where they doctor every photograph

Another is waiting
She isn't saying anything

If you care
If you like
Well I'm standing in the lantern light
With our weapons
And our love
And I use 'em both to cover up

Another is waiting
She isn't saying anything
But I love you and I care
So you got to get off that conveyor belt
If I could I would come right in and take you off myself

It's a fake
It's a con
The nature of the road you're on
Let me see
Your skeleton
Well before your life is done

Another is waiting
She isn't saying anything
Another is waiting
She isn't saying anything
