lyrics

Before the shit went down
Narcissus would wake to the pleasant sound
Of 18 million 18 year old girls
Begging just to follow him around

He dealt distain
Broke a sea of hearts just trying to make it rain
But he's a better man now
With pollen for a brain

I'm the bitch that killed Narcissus
I'm every teenage girl's arch nemesis
I'm the hero that just wants to call it quits
But I often stare at his dead lips...

I lead his splendor to a brook
Turned his wicked head and forced his eyes to look
An instant love connection
And he kneeled in face of his own reflection

I'm the bitch that killed Narcissus
I'm every teenage girl's arch nemesis
I'm the hero that just wants to call it quits
But I often stare at his dead lips...

His self-neglecting rule
Leads him to the ground where he rests now in full bloom
Unaware of the bower
That houses all the pretty flowers

I'm the bitch that killed Narcissus
I'm every teenage girl's arch nemesis
I'm the hero that just wants to call it quits
But I often stare at his dead lips...

Am I a narcissist for loving Narcissus?
