letra de the modern narcissus - coffin varnish

[verse 1]
i’ve got a painting of myself up in the attic and i like to watch it change while the rest of me is static
i fell in love with my reflection in the mirror and i’m scared to death of losing that’s how i wound up here
i live in high society i love the notoriety, they praise me and i drink it in
my life’s full of variety, the sins the s-x the piety, oh i’m devoted to pleasure

[chorus]
they call me sinner, selfish, darling, helpless
i’m an illusion of a man
demon, disdainful, perfect angel
i’ll take it all because i can

and i, am the modern narcissus
and i, cannot get enough
echo fell in love with me, she k!lled herself because of me, ophelia’s floating face up
oh the water’s so enticing, my reflection’s not sufficing, why can’t i have what i want?

[verse 2]
showed my friend the painting cause my self esteem was waning and i needed him to build me back up
gave the wrong opinion and i punished him for sinning, now he’s sleeping in a pool of his blood
called up an old love affair, said “get this body out of here or i’ll tell them all what you’ve done.”
now he’s dead too and i am through with everything i’ve done

[chorus]
they call me sinner, selfish, darling, helpless
i’m an illusion of a man
demon, disdainful, perfect angel
i’ll take it all because i can
and i, am the modern narcissus
and i, cannot get enough
echo fell in love with me, she k!lled herself because of me, ophelia’s floating face up
oh the water’s so enticing, my reflection’s not sufficing, why can’t i have what i want?

[verse 3]
beauty’s in the eye of the beholder i’m not getting any older take the time you need to say what you need to
stagnation’s getting draining and i’m losing what i’m gaining, and i’m bored- oh dear god am i bored
give me something to do, give something to lose, the scars don’t show on my skin now
my perception may be skewed, and i’m enjoying the view but there’s something terrible inside these walls

[chorus]
i am the modern narcissus
and i, cannot get enough
echo fell in love with me, she k!lled herself because of me, ophelia’s floating face up
oh the water’s so enticing, my reflection’s not sufficing, why can’t i have what i want?
