about

Scream loudly in your car while driving to the job you hate! Or in your living room 3 minutes before you open your laptop, if you work at home!

lyrics

Fake diamonds on my wrist
they're a hit yeah you like that
aiming for a miss
now I wish I could take it back
I've been around the block
too old not old enough
and I'm sick of being tired
but I'm always pushing on

Burn myself out before I ever even get there
you know what they say life is cruel life is unfair
hoping for the best but I'm living in a Nightmare
my Nightmare

This life ain't good enough for me
it's a Nightmare I'm looking for a dream
this life ain't good enough for me
it's a Nightmare
get me outta here

get me outta here

Been driving round the block
same stop had enough
one day I'm gonna make it to the top

Burn myself out before I ever even get there
you know what they say life is cruel life is unfair
hoping for the best but I'm living in a Nightmare
it's a Nightmare

This life ain't good enough for me
it's a Nightmare I'm looking for a dream
this life ain't good enough for me
it's a Nightmare get me outta here
I said I'd never sell my soul
heaven only knows
when I'm looking to let go
of this nightmare
you know I'll go there

My appearance is changing
but I feel the same
the world's spinning faster
a mess in my brain
I push back resistance
but time wins the race
the more that they say it
the less I can take

This life ain't good enough for me
it's a Nightmare I'm looking for a dream
this life ain't good enough for me
it's a Nightmare get me outta here
I said I'd never sell my soul
heaven only knows
when I'm looking to let go
of this nightmare
you know I'll go there

about

Dolly Dagger image

Dolly Dagger Los Angeles, California

Australian born, Los Angeles based alternative pop/rock artist hurtling straight to the point and walking right in to the party. Emerging from the other side of damaged, Dolly kicks the typical tropes of tormented artist right in the face. After a barrage of life and death (literally and metaphorically) Dolly considers herself one LUCKY bitch and is hell bent on getting where she’s going! ... more
