Noite de cinema 2


"What does that wispy little brat have
That you don't have double?
She can't hold a candle
To the beauty of your smile

How about a pulse?

Overrated by a mile
Overvalued
Overblown
If he only knew
The you that we know
And that silly little creature
Isn't wearing his ring
And she doesn't play piano
Or dance, or sing
No, she doesn't compare

But she still breathes air

Who cares?
Unimportant
Overrated
Overblown
lf only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew
The you that we know

If I touch a burning candle
I can feel no pain
If you cut me with a knife
It's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
And it seems that I still have
A tear to shed

The sole redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive
Overrated
Overblown
Everybody knows
That's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly
When we meet our fate
Who cares?
Unimportant
Overrated
Overblown
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew
The you that we know

If I touch a burning candle
I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the sun
It's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is aching
Though it doesn't beat, it's breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have
Some tears to shed..." , in Corpse Bride, by Tim Burton
