Safia Elaina - Diseased by Design

Les papillons de france
They're asking us to dance
To an illecebrous waltz of lucid romance
The cure's viridity
For that I can not speak
To some ludic music, purely ethereal and yonderly
I bet these honeyed dolls
Have their hectic ways to fall
Apart to the witchery and
Milkshakes after curtain calls

I bet these things have their own saudades
Velleties and envy for ghost ballerinas
Honeyblood kept close for angel venom divas
Malady and a madness one must not conceive of

Antique toys say we're diseased by design
Dollhouses are burning down I think it's time
To emerge into this delicate darkness
Is this my crime?
So diseased by design

Antique toys say we're diseased by design
Dollhouses are burning down I think it's time
To emerge into this delicate darkness
Is this my crime?
So diseased by design

Vouloir, c'est pouvoir
Stickers on damned guitars
Are the only things that brighten up the abandoned youth
Lovesick for old stars
Porcelain ballet bars
I'm allergic to the things that live beyond my daydreams
But living in art
Makes life fall apart
I guess this is what you would call the root of my illness

I bet these things have their own saudades
Velleties and envy for ghost ballerinas
Honeyblood kept close for angel venom divas
Malady and a madness one must not conceive of

Antique toys say we're diseased by design
Dollhouses are burning down I think it's time
To emerge into this delicate darkness
Is this my crime?
So diseased by design

Antique toys say we're diseased by design
Dollhouses are burning down I think it's time
To emerge into this delicate darkness
Is this my crime?
So diseased by design

Live and suffer, You do not live in fairytales
Limerence for this is why you shall fail
To understand reality
This is your crime
This, this is your crime
Live and suffer, You do not live in fairytales
Limerence for this is why you shall fail
To understand reality
This is your crime
This, this is your crime
This is your crime
This, this is your crime
This is your crime
This, this is your crime

Antique toys say we're diseased by design
Dollhouses are burning down I think it's time
To emerge into this delicate darkness
Is this my crime?
So diseased by design

Antique toys say we're diseased by design
Dollhouses are burning down I think it's time
To emerge into this delicate darkness
Is this my crime?
So diseased by design
