“When you’re a charmer
you hate yourself
a victim of sideshow hypnosis
like everyone else.”

—  Aimee Mann

"Charmer"
Song lyrics, Charmer (2012)
Context: When you’re a charmer
the world applauds
they don’t know that secretly charmers
feel like they’re frauds When you’re a charmer
you hate yourself
a victim of sideshow hypnosis
like everyone else.
