Lyrics
She comes to you in riddles and in camouflage
Fingerprints left upon the glass
She riddles you with her invisibility
Knowing things you'll never think to ask
oo oo oo - she says
oh oh oh - she knows
oo oo oo - she says, she knows
She ravishes and ruins you with sabotage
You glimpse her as she's slipping through the grass
Fooling you with every opportunity
You should've known you'd never be her last
Her ploys and decoys, you don't recognize your part
Her sleight of hand has got you feeling faint of heart
Her tricks and her turns make you feel so out of place
She says, she knows she's played you like an ace
She shimmers and you shiver she's a sweet mirage
A mystery - just beyond your grasp
She'll mesmerize and vandalize and leave you glassy eyed
Oh she's a brutal beauty never meant to last
She glows in the applause she loves her entourage
She lights you every single time she laughs
She turns you down, she burns you down and still you come around
Til there's nothing left of you but smoke and ash
