Tell me, isn't that your picture?
'Cuz I need both my hands
Yeah, I could be the million that you'll never make
'Cuz everybody loves you
And you can dangle your carrot
If you ever want to see it again
I could be the million that you never made
I am telling you I'm different than you
But I could be the million that you never made
And I am telling you I am different
At night when you're asleep
I could be the million that you never made
Than you are
And the one who's bed you sleep in
To play my guitar
Flirting with a bimbo named disaster
And try to blame it on the devil
No matter what you paid
Whispering who, what, when
Self-hatred's going to creep in
When you're a star
To change the whole fucking world
What it takes to go that far
Where all the pretty people go
I could be the million that you'll never make
I'd like to go to all the pretty parties
And life is a sleezy stranger
And I may not be able
And I am warning you I am weightless
The air is full of fish and mystery
So don't hang anything on me
I could be the million that you'll never make
Who looks vaguely familiar
And this is his favorite bar
I could be the million that you'll never make
But I'm an idealistic girl
And don't tell me what they did to you
Your mirror is going to find out
As though you had no choice
But nobody will know
But I ain't gonna reach for it
And the wind is always shifting
You're looking at the million that you'll never make
You're looking at the million that you'll never make
At the end of the bar
And nobody questions
And I wouldn't work for you
I could be the million that you never made
And life is a sleezy stranger
Think I am
And I ain't really all that pretty
I could be the million that you never made
Isn't that your voice?
If you don't live what you sing about
And no I don't prefer obscurity
