Nothing Is True

You get nothin' back for all you've saved

Just eternity in a spacious grave

She said, "nothing is true, everything is permitted"



Things just go from bad to worse

Starts like a kiss and ends like a curse

But nothing's true, she said everything is permitted



She got jewels on her tongue to time the stars

She drives all morning in unmarked cars

But nothing's true, it is all permitted



She got these special tools just to keep things tight

They robbed her eyes long ago of light

But nothing's true, she told me it's all permitted



She got inscrutable poise and nihilist charms

She gets her sleep through tubes in her arm

She said nothing is true, she said everything is permitted



She nods on graves, the marble's cold and white,

Her dreams surround the sun like a satellite

She said nothin' is true, she told me it's all permitted



The spiders [milk?] her thigh, it does not phase her

She cleans her skin with a krypton laser

Nothing is true, everything is permitted



She got heels so high, she got a gown so thin

Her eyes stop the whip before it tames her sin

She says nothin' is true, everything is permitted



Until they perfect the techniques to clone

You all better remember you're all alone

Because nothing is true, she said everything is permitted
