Just This Time

by Ashley Redden   Jul 4, 2006


Look past the mascara
And the shiny lipstick
Look a little deeper than the eyes
Go ahead wipe off the makeup
Peal it off like old paint
Take this smile off
That no one knew was fake
Look past everything in this girl
Pick her up off the ground
Wipe the tears from her eyes
Help her pick the pieces of her heart up
And put her back together
Help her brush off the dirt
And clean the wounds on her body
Wash her face and hold her tight
Let her know you care
Hold her together
Just this time
