Lyrics

She burns like a phoenix
Flying over the desert
An illusion of terrible beauty

Glittering wildly ‘gainst the city lights
She’s a roman candle burning at both ends

A paradise lost
Otherworldly and cursed
She’s a siren calling you
To shipwreck

(Girl, I need more, I need more, I need more, I need more)

Fata morgana
(There’s gotta be more than what I see)
Fata morgana
(There’s gotta be more than just a dream)
Reaching out to you but you’re not there

Caress her bones she bares for you
The void she carries will consume you
Soul torn by bitterness and trust
Waging war on her innocence

Song of the Maenads she sings
Longing for annihilation

(Girl, I need more, I need more, I need more, I need more)

Fata morgana
(There’s gotta be more than what I see)
Fata morgana
(There’s gotta be more than just a dream)
Reaching out to you but you’re not there

Her image reflected in a pool
A pure white, rippling narcissus

Dress it up with gems and makeup
In the spotlight, she’s a starlet

Take a picture, add a filter
It hides the glory of her dead heart

(Girl, I need more, I need more, I need more, I need more)

Fata morgana
(There’s gotta be more than what I see)
Fata morgana
(There’s gotta be more than just a dream)
Reaching out to you but you’re not there

She burns like a phoenix
flying over the desert
an illusion of terrible beauty
