Preservation Lyrics

Preservation

I`m preserving myself with make-up
Lookin` in the mirror
I`m preserving my life, I can take it
Shinin` in the spotlight

Preservation, lookin` in the mirror
Preservation, but they don`t know that I`m scrapin` it all off
Every night

I`m reserving my rights, reputation
Livin` in a movie, it`s keepin` me lookin` right
When the secret is out to the public
Seein` is believin`, they still wanna be me at night
When the parts get shorter, the parties get harder
But that`s alright

Preservation, lookin` in the mirror
Preservation, but they don`t know that I`m scrapin` it off
Every night

They`re linin` up to make their entrance
When the word`s out I`m in town, they`re not nice girls
But that`s alright
They`re lookin` so much better when the lights go down
But nice girls is just a frame of mind

Preservation, lookin` in the mirror
Preservation, but they don`t know that I`m scrapin` it off
Every night
(written by Nazareth)
