Remember the day you came to me and said you found the [bad word] 
 And I turned away and told you should take another look?
 You said you’d see what’s going on
 I know you [bad word] but something’s wrong

 We have our lives to bear
 Our bags to burden
 But we just buy and we wear
 The plastic version of
 Love, hope, understanding
 But we can’t survive on candy

 Red carpet ride
 Can take your mind
 Away from anything
 And I wanna die
 At every mention of “celebrity”
 Like “who’s doing who”
 Just how and where
 Long as it’s not you
 I just don’t care

 We have our lives to bear
 Our bags to burden
Courtesy of [bad word]  But we just buy and we wear
 The plastic version of
 Love, hope, understanding
 But we can’t survive on candy
 [bad word] far away from all your serious concerns
 I know you’ve learned to you use your fairytales
 To get you through the hurt
 Who’s falling? We’re falling
 And there’s just no climbing back
 So I’m slowin’, I'm stallin’
 While I’m under full attack

 We have our lives to bear
 Our bags to burden
 But we just buy and we wear
 The plastic version of
 Love, hope and understanding
 But we can’t survive on candy
 On candy
 On candy
 On candy
 We can’t survive, can’t survive on candy
