makeup makes me pretty

I feel like I lost it, honest
I feel like I'm a million miles away from what I used to be
There's a couple of substances
In the hole where my heart used to be
Maybe I'm a lost cause and I'll take that to my grave (whoa)
Maybe I don't wanna talk about it anyway
One step you're close to me
I just wanna feel wanted
Sometimes love is all you need
When you don't wanna feel nothing

'Cause makeup makes me pretty
Makes me feel like I'm someone
'Cause skin is such a pity
When you're trapped in the wrong one
'Cause makeup makes me pretty
Makes me feel like I'm someone
'Cause skin is such a pity
When you're trapped in the wrong one

And I don't wanna run away
Why does this always happen to me?
We could live just like the movie on your screen
Don't know if I could last another day
Feel like I'm preaching to the choir
Wonder why I look so tired all the time
All the time, I try to find, dead or alive
It's so hard to live a lie
All the time, I try to find, dead or alive
It's so hard to live a lie

Yeah, you want it, you breathe it, never really need it
Got my back at the sun but it's still burning my feet
Got your life in my hands but I don't know what it means
No, I don't know what it means, can you spell it out for me?
Cuz the calendar days they trip they spiral
Haven't spoke in weeks, I guess, been a while
If I make my bed and brush my teeth
Will you fill my head with kerosene?

'Cause makeup makes me pretty
Makes me feel like I'm someone
'Cause skin is such a pity
When you're trapped in the wrong one
'Cause makeup makes me pretty
Makes me feel like I'm someone
'Cause skin is such a pity
When you're trapped in the wrong one
