Make Up Songtext
von The Kut

Blood print stains on the floor of a powdered room
Cracks in the mirror starting to show too soon
Mascara lines streaming down her face
Her cocaine lipstick smile is such a waste

On the floor, she′s almost dead

She remembers the words that her father once said

"No, you don't need make up
To cover your face, love
You′re beautiful now,
Within and without,

You're good to yourself
You're doing me proud

No, you don′t need make up

To cover your scars up
You′re beautiful now
Within and without


And never forget
You're doing me proud"
She′s locked up in a prison made of thoughts
She puts no worth on anything she's got
′Cause no one believes that she was born this way
And heaven knows that God don't make mistakes, no
On the floor
He′s almost dead
He remembers the words that his father once said
"No, you don't need make up
To cover your face, love
You're beautiful now,
Within and without
You′re good to yourself
You′re doing me proud
No, you don't need make up
To cover your scars up
You′re beautiful now
Within and without
And never forget
You're doing me proud"
(...)
He′s beating himself up before he's even leaving the house
He′s driving himself nuts, in case we're finding him out
Yeah, he knows what society thinks
When they see this man dressing so pretty in pink
He's always loved to play dress up
But daddy′s got something to say
′You're not a screw up, boy, no more hiding away′
But she's a queen in a skin of a king
Never happy who she is, that′s the
Saddest fucking thing, yeah
'No, you don′t need make up to cover your face, love
You're beautiful now
Within and without,
Be good with yourself
You're doing me proud
No, You don′t need make up
To cover your scars up
You′re beautiful now
Within and without
And never forget
You're doing me proud"
Oh, if someone steals your lipstick
And keeps your mascara dry
If somebody′s got you crying
Make sure that they tease your joy
No, you don't need make up
