My Mannequin Can Dance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're all eyes and in my personal opinion
We're not all you were hoping for
When you say my name
Say it like a curse
I saw your face in the magazine sayin' I can't hear it
All the girls all glittered and glossed
Screamin' we can feel you, can you feel me?
We'll die if we're not
In our courts of conscience life is lies
Lies are life
But don't lie to me
You're just chasing shadows
Show us some heart, confess your sins
We'll sing with eyes closed
And you can tear us apart but you won't break the skin
Just put on your face and...
I would love nothing more in the world
Than to watch you as you spill your guts.
Unrehearsed you're just a silhouette
You never had a voice so why all the fuss?
You can have the kingdom, you can have the crown,
But you won't have the people.
No, we'll see you down.
You're just chasing shadows
Show us some heart, confess your sins
We'll sing with eyes closed
And you can tear us apart but you won't break the skin
Put on your face
Put on your face
And scream
You're just chasing shadows
Show us some heart, confess your sins
We'll sing with eyes closed
And you can tear us apart but you won't break the skin
Just put on your face
Put on your face
And scream
And scream
And scream
For me
