Lyrics for Sweet Like Candy

If I tell you I'm ugly, will you sell it back to me? Make me picture perfect? Tell me I'm worth it? Big eyes, cartoon teeth, sci-fi fantasy Save me from real life agony Save me from real life agony Candied crowns on distorted queens That's me starring on the big screen Glowing skin Perfect veins Daydreams spread A virtual plague Can I fit into this frame? Can I fit through this doorway? Will you fuck me to make me Feel like I'm worth anything? Candied crowns on distorted queens That's me starring on the big screen Glowing skin Perfect veins Daydreams spread A virtual plague My hair is falling out I'm sweet like candy My skin is breaking out I'm sweet like candy Crooked teeth and cavities I'm sweet like candy Looks that kill Looks that kill I'll rot like candy I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay I choose decay
