Lyrics

The sidewalk?s cracked and crammed with busy people
I am distracted by the world I see
The neon lights, the billboards, and the windows
I try to fight the message they send me

Now a magazine?s going to tell you what you?ve got to have
That your self esteem?s going to come from the clothes that you wear
The TV screen?s going to tell you you could be more slender
They?re saying live your dream by spending like a millionaire

With the need to impress we begin to obsess
We chase down success yet we only regress
In this world I confess, to find true happiness
A girl has got to invest in a bulletproof dress

Got to deflect all the petty propaganda
Got to protect yourself from jaded jealousy
Got to defend yourself from silly scandals
Got to ascend to higher ground so you can see
