Fair Facade
Yesterday I took a photo
Dressed in lace
All petite and they loved that
Tummy's small, weights right
Yeah I starved that
Makeup on point, teeth shine bright
Skin is glowing
Trust me I scrubbed that
But in the end I didn't disappoint
Came out in smile and waved like a queen
But do they ever notice
I pray they didn't see
That even though I smiled
Eyes were wet in tears
Emptiness
I'd caved right before
Yeah I might have cried the whole night
Or maybe till I blanked out
And I can't count how many times
I've done this cultic night routine
And every dark night having an appointment
With my demons we scream in disappointment
Closed curtains behind closed doors
Having lost all hope for redemption
But it's the life I live
And the love I know
A life enslaved to this fair facade
