Take Off All Your Make-up

by Nicole   Nov 3, 2004


Black tears
fall from brown eyes
mascara smearing
eye liner bleeding
Revealed is a girl lonely
but not alone

Then he said...

Take off all your makeup
there's beauty underneath
take off all your guards baby
so don't you go and weep
no,
don't you go and weep

She smiled
a fake smile
she laughed with
artificial happiness
she wiped her eye with her hand
smeared with black mascara and
eyeliner
She couldn't handle this...

Then he said...

Don't you cry darling, you're wonderful...
Don't ever doubt yourself, you're beautiful...
Don't you ever give up,
So take off all your makeup
I wont
listen to the excuses that you make up,
Just take off all your makeup
I'll be here, straight up
here to keep you warm
Now stop hiding behind your mask
You're beauty in it's truest form.
