Polished Gold

Verse 1

Silver tray

Cold tea

Sitting in the throne you built for me

Silk stockings

Sharp heels

Telling you exactly how the boardroom feels

You want

A prize

A pretty little thing with heavy eyes

You want

The view

But darling I have got no room for you

Chorus

I am the one you see

I am the one you see

I am the one you see

But you are never seeing me

Polished gold

Hearts on hold

I am exactly what you want

But I don't want you

No I don't want you

Drop

I don't want you

No I don't want you

Verse 2

Red ink

Stained glass

Watching every single second pass

Lipstick

Like blood

Leaving your intentions in the mud

Paper thin

Plastic grin

I won't ever let the monster in

Checkmate

Too late

I am deciding on your fate

Chorus

I am the one you see

I am the one you see

I am the one you see

But you are never seeing me

Polished gold

Hearts on hold

I am exactly what you want

But I don't want you

No I don't want you

Drop

I don't want you

No I don't want you

Bridge

Maybe it's the power

Maybe it's the weight

Maybe it's the way I make you wait

I'm the dream

I'm the ghost

I'm the one who hates you most

I'm the one who hates you most

Chorus

I am the one you see

I am the one you see

I am the one you see

But you are never seeing me

Polished gold

Hearts on hold

I am exactly what you want

But I don't want you

No I don't want you

Drop

I don't want you

No I don't want you

I don't want you

No I don't want you

Outro

Check the lock

Watch the clock

I'm gone

I'm gone

I'm gone
