Lyrics
SIDE A EPx3: “Secondhand Smoke” [Intro] Step right up, darlings, don’t choke, This song is called secondhand smoke. It’s about cocksure egos. Ha. Ready? Down we go. [Verse 1] No mirror inside, so they borrow your face, Validation’s the drug they chase. Shiny cars, hollow eyes, Charm that blinds, and charm that lies. [Chorus ] Mirror, mirror, what do you know? Arrogant hearts all need a glow show. Praise me, praise me… but can you grow? Like, can you flow and bow? (Or just blow, blow?) [Verse 2] Entitled thrones on borrowed ground, Their laughter’s loud, their silence profound. Grand illusions, paper crowns, Lift you up, then tear you down. [Chorus ] Mirror, mirror, what do you know? Arrogant hearts all need a glow show. Praise me, praise me… but can you grow? Like, can you flow and bow? (Or just blow, blow?) [Bridge] No empathy, no remedy, Woke ain’t like smoke, ain’t your enemy. Round and round, the blowers spin, And sorrow seeps through my skin. [Outro] Step away, darling, break the spell, Breathe your own air, and breathe it well. Leave their circus, let them choke, On their own secondhand smoke.
