Oh Baby, Pretty Like a Car Crash
Self-Destruction Elegance: Unraveling the Beauty Within
Lyrics
Push it a little further
Encouraging to go beyond limits or boundaries.
The tachometer forces the scales to tip
The speedometer is causing a shift in perspective, possibly referring to a change in mindset or values.
Beauty that is so self consuming
Describing a beauty that consumes itself, possibly hinting at self-destructive tendencies.
And yet so skin deep there is not much left
Despite superficial beauty, there's little substance remaining.
Faster and faster as tires lose traction
Increasing speed with loss of control, symbolic of a reckless lifestyle.
Purchase lies sewn into modern fashion
Falsehoods ingrained in contemporary fashion.
Misled eyes that inspire destruction
Eyes that mislead and provoke destructive actions.
How much more can your little vessel take on
Questioning the endurance of one's inner self in the face of external pressures.
Over extended and still out of reach
Struggling to attain something elusive, perhaps a goal or desire.
I can not seem to extinguish the blaze
Unable to extinguish a passion or desire, possibly destructive in nature.
That your body has set flame to
Describing the intensity of desire and passion within the body.
There is an arsonist among the architects
Suggesting that destructive forces are present among those who create.
And you don't deserve thisâ?¦.you don't deserve this
Expressing empathy, stating that the subject does not deserve the challenges they face.
Your creation has gone awry
The creation or result has deviated from the intended path.
Eyes hold back tears, but can not be torn away
Eyes that resist shedding tears but can't look away from the situation.
This is what you have become
Describing a transformed state due to external influences and judgments.
Because of what they say
The transformation is a response to societal opinions and criticism.
Never to realize your true beauty
Failure to recognize one's true beauty, possibly due to societal standards.
And sharp words can scar for a lifetime
Words with a lasting impact, capable of causing emotional scars.
Another one trying to escape the pressure
Another individual attempting to escape societal pressures.
Of their perfectly painted picture
Referring to the pressure of maintaining a flawless image.
Mangled and deceived they left you in a wreck
Describing a person left damaged and deceived, possibly by societal expectations.
I want to look away, just not yet
Expressing the desire to look away from the distressing situation but not doing so yet.
Page to page, cover to cover
Suggesting a continuous cycle of seeking distraction or escape.
Push two more back and indulge in another
Encouraging further indulgence in distractions, possibly implying avoidance of reality.
