Paint your face on sweet angel
We already know what lies underneath

She's been here before
Helpless without him
left behind for some new whore
A new scar to mend
Shes just the same.
Same games but different faces
Building her castles from sand
Letting the tide wash them in

There she goes again
Shes done this all before
Standing in a crowd of angels
dancing topless in the sun

Coral crown atop her head
She seeks the same as us all
Empowered when the words are said
Fuck them all
She drinks their tears
Screaming at the ones she loved
Poisoned by her cause
High on her own drug

Shes been here
Done this all before
Standing in a crowd of angels
dancing topless in the sun

Convenient when your chances were damned
Toxicity used for your own gain
Liquid courage that forced your hand
Empowered when you're in bed
Even when you weren't wanted
I must be a faggot!

Paint your face on
Blame it all on all of them
We already know what lies underneath

Hold onto the scarecrow
Pretend you aren't part if all
Let the world grow cold
Because even with your ideals
They'll still make you feel small
Fragile little angel

You've been here
Done all this before
Standing in the crowd
Dancing with angels topless in the sun.
