Falling for the glitter

 

Falling for the glitter,

can’t hear the message for the miracles are in the way and you’re

falling for the glitter,

the magic’s got the sway.

 

Falling for the glitter,

all the power in the occult.

You’re like a horse that's escaped from the confines of its gates

and who now just wants to bolt.

 

Cause you’ve falling with the phenomenon,

the occult power to control.

But really, you’re out of control yet you think

you’re on a roll.

 

Cause you’ve fallen for the glitter

and you’ve forgotten the subtleties behind

what makes all this power (the love within).

Oh! you’re so blind.

 

You’ve fallen for the glitter,

such an ease mistake my friend

and you think that you’re generous and giving ,but alas,

you take.

 

Because you’ve fallen for the glitter,

and you’re falling with the glitter

and alas, I’m sorry to say my friend,

you’ve fallen in the litter.
