[Verse 1]
You pulled me in with your stepping stones
I took your word like it was made of gold
Running breathless after something
That I never even wanted
All because you told me so, oh-oh-oh
And I couldn't see it for what it was
[Chorus]
I got lost in the glitter
Caught up in the shimmer
One look in the mirror
[And I?]
Couldn't recognize myself like that
So lost in the— (Glitter)
Glitter
So lost in the— (Glitter, glitter)
Glitter
[Verse 2]
You dressed me up and I played your games
Wore your makeup all ovеr my face
You told me to fake it until wе made it
But those were your dreams I was chasing
Watching myself waste away, hmm
[Chorus]
I got lost in the glitter
Caught up in the shimmer
One look in the mirror
[And I?]
Couldn't recognize myself like that
So lost in the— (Glitter)
Glitter
So lost in the— (Glitter, glitter)
Glitter
[Bridge]
Chasing the money left us with nothing
Spent all my energy, you kept me running
I built a prison, kept all my feelings
Locked up tight, no sunlight
Yeah, hindsight, I see it clearly
You never really cared much about me
You just wanted me to hold you… up
[Chorus]
So lost in the glitter
Caught up in the shimmer
There's no getting rid of it now
You're still stuck to me somehow
I've learned to live with that
