Pretty disquise

Lyrics

Intro — whispered
Paint it on…
Hide the cracks…
Smile for them…
Never look back.

Verse 1
Lipstick like a loaded gun,
Pretty face beneath the damage done,
Every scar tucked underneath
A porcelain smile and perfect teeth.

I learned to laugh when I wanted to scream,
Turned my nightmares into magazine dreams,
You see an angel dressed in white—
You never saw what lived inside.

Pre-Chorus
Pull the strings, watch me dance,
Give the devil one more chance,
If you want the girl behind the eyes,
You're gonna have to kill the—

Chorus
Pretty disguise!
Beautiful lies underneath my eyes,
I wear my sorrow like a crown,
You couldn't break me, so I burned it down.
Pretty disguise!
Sweet little smile with a venomous bite,
You only love what you recognize—
But you never knew me
Behind my pretty disguise!

Verse 2
Silk and shadows, lace and sin,
Lock the chaos underneath my skin,
Every compliment becomes a chain,
Every photograph conceals the pain.

You called me fragile, called me sweet,
Never noticed the monster underneath,
I played the part you wanted to see,
Until the role became a part of me.

Pre-Chorus
Pull the strings, watch me dance,
Think you still control my hands,
You wanted someone you could idolize—
Now look into the devil's eyes.

Chorus
Pretty disguise!
Beautiful lies underneath my eyes,
I wear my sorrow like a crown,
You couldn't break me, so I burned it down.
Pretty disguise!
Sweet little smile with a venomous bite,
You only love what you recognize—
But you never knew me
Behind my pretty disguise!

Breakdown
Rip the ribbon—
Break the glass!
Let the perfect little picture crack!
No more angel,
No more saint,
No more hiding everything you made!

I AM THE FACE YOU TAUGHT ME TO WEAR!
I AM THE NIGHT HIDING UNDER YOUR PRAYER!
YOU WANTED BEAUTY—
NOW STARE!

Guitar Solo

[Bridge — clean vocals building into scream]
Maybe I was never broken,
Maybe I was just concealed,
Every secret that I swallowed
Was another wound that healed.

Now the mirror doesn't scare me,
Now I finally see the truth—
The girl beneath the pretty mask
Was never afraid of you.

Final Chorus
PRETTY DISGUISE!
Watch all the porcelain come alive,
No more hiding what I keep inside,
No more tears that I have to disguise.

PRETTY DISGUISE!
I turned my scars into neon lights,
You wanted perfect—
I gave you night!
You never knew me
Behind my pretty disguise!

Outro — whispered
Pretty little smile…
Pretty little lie…
Pretty little monster…
Finally alive.
