Black Candy Plus - Necklace

I heard them call a name
That sounded just like mine
But I walked righ by
Without batting an eye
Didn't want to get burned
Like I did last time

Thoughts exude the words
Around your lips
I assumed were written
Just for me
When I look too long
To see if it's true
The man behind my back
Breaks through

And I'm sick of these games
The darlings dare to play
They say it's rock and roll
Right down to its soul
But if you want to rebel
Why'd your mama do it too?

Do you keep a tally
Of your score
With the beads you wear
Around your neck?
Are they of those
Who come and go
Or those who could not
Get inside?

I don't need you
To wear me around
I don't need you
To wear me down
I don't need you
In this glossy town
I don't need you
In this glossy hollow town
