Lyrics: Painted Reality

 

Painted Reality

I used to drown in perfection
And tremble late at night
I smiled to make them love me
But nothing ever felt right

I am afraid I'm never enough
Been shaping myself to earn their love
But I won't hide behind the pain
Every scar reminds that I remain

This painted reality
Is tearing my soul from me
But I won't change who I am
I won't pretend, won't play the game
This painted reality
Is stealing what's real in me
I'd rather be broken in two
Than perfect and playing for you

Yeah… yeah…

I was a puppet of beauty
Painted strength on weakness
I shaped a girl I couldn't be
Until I lost my reflection

I see a thousand faces
Concealing what is true
We betray
The self we knew

I am afraid I'm never enough
Been shaping myself to earn their love
But I won't hide behind the pain
Every scar reminds that I remain

This painted reality
Is tearing my soul from me
But I won't change who I am
I won't pretend, won't play the game
This painted reality
Is stealing what'ѕ real in me
I'd rather be broken in two
Than perfect and playing for you

Yeаh… for you
