"Spell check can be wrong!"


She’s beautiful on the outside, so they say
Beautiful on the outside, so they say
But she’s screaming on the inside

Everyone passes by, not a single glance
Passes by, not a single glance
She’s looking out from a painted mask

Just another step to relax, then it’ll be ok
Just another step to relax, then it’ll be ok
Fighting against her own in an nonexistent world

As she lingers in the past, horrors still remain
Lingers in the past, horrors still remain
Another call from another him, saying I don’t need you anymore

She slowly breaks down, on the outside
Slowly breaking down, on the outside
No one wants what others had

She just closes her eyes, hoping to forget
Closes her eyes, hoping to forget
Down she goes into the past

Lying to herself, with no success
Lying, with no success
No need for anyone but herself

Picking up the pieces, all scattered around
Just picking up the pieces, scattered around
Off she goes into a nonexistent world

That killed beauty, off she goes
Killed beauty, off she goes
Now a happy ghost
