Name: Cardboard Mansions
Duration: P00H03M38S
Description: About a lady dwelling within mental illness. Inside her mind, she is the happiest, on the external world, she lives in a mess. I SO LOVE the sound of an overdriven guitar through a Leslie. If anyone has a Leslie they want to give me for Christmas, I'll love you forever!

about

About a lady dwelling within mental illness. Inside her mind, she is the happiest, on the external world, she lives in a mess. I SO LOVE the sound of an overdriven guitar through a Leslie. If anyone has a Leslie they want to give me for Christmas, I'll love you forever!

lyrics

Crowds whisper and stare
She runs a vintage comb down through her hair
She don't have a care
Just a cardboard mansion millionaire

Discover irony
Her voices dictate what she sees
A sweet reality
To the passerby a tragedy

Existence unconfined
She's an offbeat state of mind
She'll leave nothing behind
Just a shadow of humankind
