My Mannequin Can Dance Songtext

von Matchbook Romance

We're all eyes
And in my personal opinion
If 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 saying I can't hear it
All the girls all glittered and glossed
Screaming we can feel you, can you feel me?
We'll die if we're not
In a corpse of conscience
Lie
These lies live a life
But don't lie to me

You're just chasing shadows
Show us some heart and confess your sins
We'll sing with arms closed
And you can tear us apart cuz 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 wanted the people.
No, or else you drown.
(i'm not really sure about these last two lines,
It could maybe be 'you're one of the people'?)

You're just chasing shadows
Show us some heart and confess your sins
We'll sing with arms closed
You can tear us apart cuz you wont break the skin

Put on your face
Put on your face
And scream

You're just chasing shadows
Show us some heart and confess your sins
We'll sing with arms closed
You can tear us apart cuz you wont break the skin

Just put on your face
Just put on your face
And scream
And scream
And scream for me
