The Truth Inside
Tattoos, piercing, jewellery
Designer clothes, perfumery
Make-up, fashion, can't you see
Not one is a necessity
But earning for an industry
That preys on insecurity
Discouraging our honesty
Enjoying our stupidity
I'm looking for companionship
I'm looking for a lover
Remembering the adage about a book and not the cover
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
Force-fed, airbrushed imagery
Told the size that you must be
Your aim to make a fantasy
For those with no sincerity
Such shallow partners only see
The outermost periphery
They only want simplicity
For inner you no empathy
I'm looking for companionship
I'm looking for a lover
Remembering the adage about a book and not the cover
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
What you see is what you're gonna get
Can't see the point in hiding things that one day I'll regret
To love is such a simple thing to do
And all I need for happiness is simply loving you
I'm looking for companionship
I'm looking for a lover
Remembering the adage about a book and not the cover
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
The truth inside
The truth inside
Designer clothes, perfumery
Make-up, fashion, can't you see
Not one is a necessity
But earning for an industry
That preys on insecurity
Discouraging our honesty
Enjoying our stupidity
I'm looking for companionship
I'm looking for a lover
Remembering the adage about a book and not the cover
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
Force-fed, airbrushed imagery
Told the size that you must be
Your aim to make a fantasy
For those with no sincerity
Such shallow partners only see
The outermost periphery
They only want simplicity
For inner you no empathy
I'm looking for companionship
I'm looking for a lover
Remembering the adage about a book and not the cover
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
What you see is what you're gonna get
Can't see the point in hiding things that one day I'll regret
To love is such a simple thing to do
And all I need for happiness is simply loving you
I'm looking for companionship
I'm looking for a lover
Remembering the adage about a book and not the cover
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
I'm looking through the layers
Seeing what they hide
I'm looking past deception to find the truth inside
The truth inside
The truth inside
