Half Pure - The Ninth Wave

You try to get away from

Away from prying eyes

The ones that never stay shut

The ones they glamourise

And this corrosion is coming

Or is that all in your head?

And now you’ve misplaced your face

You wear another one instead

Because you’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?

You’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?

Don’t you want to turn their heads some more?

Don’t you want to know what you were bred for?

It’s the pain, the glamour, the sound when you stammer

In vain, your manners, you’re talking to an empty face, and

Don’t you want to know what you were bred for?

You’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?

You’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?

It’s the pain, the glamour, the sound when you stammer

In vain, your manners, you’re talking to an empty face, and

Don’t you want to know what you were bred for?

You’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?

You’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?

You’re only half pure, you’re only half pure

Where’s the pain and the glamour that you were bred for?
