The Script - Make Up lyrics

Blood print stains on the floor
Of a powder room
The 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 makeup
To cover your face, love
You're beautiful now, within and without
Be good to yourself, you're doing me proud
No, you don't need makeup 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 makeup
To cover your face, love
You're beautiful now, within' and without
Be good to yourself, you're doing me proud
No, you don't need makeup 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 dresses
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 makeup
To cover your face, love
You're beautiful now, within and without
Be 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"

Oh, find someone who smears your lipstick
And keeps your mascara dry
If somebody's got you crying
Make sure they’re tears of joy
No, you don't need make up
