Porcelain Gods Lyrics - Paul Weller

Beware false prophets, take a stand 

My fortune cookie cracked up in my hand 

More advice to fill up your head 

More empty words from the living dead 

Seek to explain what can't really be said 

How disappointed I was 

To turn out after all 

Just a porcelain God 

That shatters when it falls

Too much will kill you, too little ain't enough 

You shout my name but I'll call, you're bluff 

Most who see me, see me not for real 

We fake and fawn, playing games 'til dawn 

I could see, oh, what you can see 

Yeah, and I hate too, oh, what you hate in me 

How disappointed I am 

To find me part of no plan 

Just a porcelain God 

That shatters when it falls, yeah 

When it falls, yeah, yeah 

I shake it off and start again 

Don't lose control, I tell myself 

Life can take many things away 

Some people will try and take it all 

They'll pick off pieces as they watch you crawl

Shatters when it falls
