i sold my life on the internet
the man who bought it 
didn't realize
how much i was worth

the house i lived in
echoes now and holds a chill
everything i called my own
seems bigger now it's not mine

he paid for my life
in dirtied, worn cash
he'd been saving up
for something this big

i'm looking for a new life now
maybe i'll just buy
someone else's world

i went on TV to find a soulmate
all i found were plastic people
with paper mache hearts 
and wax lips

they set me up with an actor
we went on a date
to my favorite italian place

but the conversation was scripted
and the laughter was pre-recorded
the cameras added 50lbs
and followed us all night

i should've known
souldmates don't exist 
in sitcoms and gameshows
who knows anymore
if they're even real at all.
