Cosmetic Lyrics - Singles - My Ruin

elegantly wasted and i can taste it 

here i sit, trying not to fake this gift 

of the beauty myth 

i can't help but feel like this 

bored... of the beauty whore 

cos my body just wants more 

scars... and i can feel them 

wounds... i can't heal them 

red bring my mouth to life 

black revive my hair that's dyed 

make up always helps me hide 

what i don't like on the outside 

[chorus] 

starlight, starbright 

first star i see tonight 

i wish i may, i wish i might 

have the wish i wish tonight 

a birthday girl 

a broken heart 

you name the drama she played the part 

long lost demons leave her godless 

like her powder 

leaves her flawless 

sugar coated heart shaped pout 

lipstick just destorts her mouth 

mascara puts her eyes to sleep 

cos beauty's only skin deep 

[repeat chorus] 

bitch du jour 

served on a platter 

she's so pretty 

but does it matter 

beauty is in the eyes of the beholder 

but nobody told her 

mirror mirror on the wall 

watch her break and watch her fall 

stitch her smile 

bruise her knees 

walk among her enemies 

blessed am i among women 

to live and love in such a beautiful temple 

blessed am i among women
