The Item Girl

[Intro]
I hear you ask with every death accrued
Who's still afraid of red, yellow and blue?
Nigh on heel-turn, violently
Cry subaltern vehemently

[Verse 1]
An artifice, all empty static
An outline to abrase
I would stand had I not objected to
All Assertion silently
Seek To Burden
Stray too far
Rendering the act subdued

[Chorus]
I only meant it in relation to
The underpinnings of an act I’ll soon regret
For all the trappings of an item girl
I’m in no rush to reappraise it yet

[Verse 2]
A vapid tryst deemed emblematic
An ethos to evade
Understand, this is not a platitude
Veiled coercion, a reprieve
Defamation
Veer from what
Could remedy an attitude

[Chorus]
I only meant it in relation to
The underpinnings of an act I’ll soon regret
For all the trappings of an Item Girl
I’m in no rush to reappraise it yet

[Outro]
I hear you ask with every death accrued
Who's still afraid of red, yellow and blue?
Nigh on heel-turn, violently
Cry subaltern vehemently
