"Fill the void up with celluloid" -- I'm not quite sure what it means either, but I also thought of it as a clever lyric about plastic surgery maybe?

Living Dead was the worst track for me, except the chorus. And that eerie Greek (or whatever language that is) a capella at the end of Fear and Loathing gave me goosebumps.

In primadonna she's playing "The beauty queen."
Her life is shallow and empty. On the outside she's glamorous and beautiful, but she's just a vacuous shell of a person.
The void in which she speaks is something lacking in her life. She doesn't know what it is.
Because she is a person of no real substance, the only thing that is important to her are superficial things, not things like family, love, relationships, education, etc.
So, she will "fill the void up with celluloid".
Celluloid is the substance that used to me used (I dont think its used anymore? could be wrong?) in the in a roll of film to produce movies and photographs.
She will try to find fulfillment through being photographed/recorded... by being immortalized on film, but it will never work because that's not what she's missing.

"Oh Dear Diary,
I met a boy,
He made my gum heart,
Light up with joy.
...
Oh Dear Diary,
We fell apart
Welcome to the life of Electra Heart"
I have never had such a small snippet of a song on repeat for so long.
Absolutely in love.
The whole album is amazing.

My standout tracks are
Primadonna, Lies, Teen Idle, Hypocrates, VOTD, BB. No offense but Starring Role, TSOD, Living Dead and P&C sound the same to me...I know they don't really sound the same but to me they sound like they can all be summed up in one song rather then four, which they can't so idk what I'm saying but..yea.

So, now that I've heard the songs. I think it's safe to say her next three singles are gonna be Lies, Hypocrates and VOTD'S...maybe Teen Idle or Starring Role

I can honestly see P&C being a single.
It's by no means her best, but it is very radio friendly

I think it's going to be Lies, Starring Role or VotD.
We all know Starring Role is her favourite track on the album cause someone stated she said that before, so it has a high chance of being a single. I wish Teen Idle could be a single, but it seems far too out there for her to choose that since she has a strong connection with Lies and Starring Role.

Well done! It's not easy to make them out.
Slight correction. I believe it's "Queentex", not Quitex, it's a lingerie brand
