Your smile is nothing to live for But read out your lines And bring the fantasy to life You taste like a ghost A cold simulation So close to the truth A costume jewel, an off-white lie Insect in amber, is that what you are Keep it in mind now Insect in amber, the death of a star Now and forever Because you will never never never be Yeah you will never never never be More than a machine A trace of a smile A sly imitation Light with no heat An empty cry in silent streets Your mannequin moves You ghost through the motions So close to the truth You almost had me for a while Insect in amber, is that what you are Keep it in mind now Insect in amber, the death of a star Now and forever Because you will never never never be Yeah you will never never never be More than a machine Insect in amber forever you are Keep that in mind now Insect in amber the death of a star Keep that in mind now No going back and there’s no one to tell Nowhere to turn, better turn on yourself No more disguises to find a way out And you will never never be
