Lyrics

Can you define this kind
of cold confidence?
Can you explain away
this angry innocence?
In a sense, it's all a tear,
What once was, was never really there.

Fast feelings,
High heelings,
Low ceilings,
No dealings.

Do you recall the day
you put away your toys?
Hours were spent rehearsing
calculated poise.
Poison pen is much too clear,
you should use the subtle and sincere.

Fast feelings,
High heelings,
Low ceilings,
No dealings.

Something that was written on a page,
something acted on a stage,
something distant, something vague.
