lyrics

Monochromatic
All dressed up in vinyl
Staring down at your glass
I’ve never seen you
Moving so slowly
And drowning your liquor so fast

Red light casting
The shadow of a doubt
That you’d even remember my name
The night that I saw you
Walk into the black room
The neon, leather and lace

Fetish and attraction
The burden of discretion
The secret to making it in
I know your friends are fake
But it’d be a lie to say
I didn’t envy you from the outside looking in

[CHORUS]
Another hollow shell
In a solitary hell, a Future dystopian scene
I know it all too well, yea
The lie you tell yourself
Just to validate all the hate and misery

Tired cliches apparently still hold true
Pain or pleasure, all depends on your point of view

Obey the code of silence
Don’t give away the safe word
They won’t let just anyone in

Keepers at the gate
Only theater of pain
Another L.A. story, we all know how it ends
