YOU OXIDATE SLOWLY
YOU CHANGE EVERY TIME
OUR CHEMICAL FORMULA
DOESN"T SEEM RIGHT
YOU POLISH THINGS SLOWLY
BUT AFTER A WHILE
SHINY "S TOO SHINY
AND BRIGHT IS TOO BRIGHT
YOU"RE COPPER BABY
YOU"LL TURN INTO GREEN
IF I DON"T TAKE CARE
THE GLOW WILL DISAPPEAR
YOU"RE A BITTERSWEET TASTE
IN THE BACK OF MY MOUTH
A VISCIOUS REACTION
THAT"S BURNING MY MIND
