20goto10 – Humannequin lyrics
In the application
There's pleasure for the shallow
Cover all the flaws
In a ritual that's hollow
Going through the motions
Layer upon layer
Conjuring the lies
Making faces in the mirror
You're just a mannequin
A hollow replicant
Complete deception
Of perfection
First is the foundation
A perfect plane of white
Hide the imperfections
With a lovely mask of paint
There's glamor in mascara
For every him and her
A perfect pout of lipstick
Is a smile to show the world
Artificial beauty
Is beauty just the same
As long as they believe you
You're secret will be safe
Maybe you're born with it
And maybe you're worth it
But why do you do it
And what makes you hide
