Libitina - Warpaint lyrics

Gla** houses shatter easily enough And your specious houses built on the sand Without the proper foundations shall fall So too your castles in the air standing tall We no longer from the same gla** sup This time there can be no kiss-and-make-up We see you paint your eye A mask to live the lie To show you as someone else Stronger than you are We see you colour your lips A mask to live the lie To hide your sneer behind The evil that you are We see you whiten your face A mask to live the lie To blot out all trace of the person that you truly are We're not toys with which to be idly played Nor mannequins clothed in your favourite phrase Your comments fuel more than dignity commands And we must needs answer our pride's demands We no longer from the same gla** sup This time there can be no kiss-and-make-up We see you paint your eye A mask to live the lie To show you as someone else Stronger than you are We see you colour your lips A mask to live the lie To hide your sneer behind The evil that you are We see you whiten your face A mask to live the lie To blot out all trace of the person that you truly are Talk about biting the hand that feeds For your naive complaints our hearts bleed It remains to be seen who more feels the pain Of spiteful words spoken in vain We no longer from the same gla** sup This time there can be no kiss-and-make-up
