Doll Face

[Intro] Pretty ribbons, painted eyes Morning light across my smile People stop and people stare I like it when they see me there *(love me...)* *(let me out...)* [Verse 1] Little hands against the glass Smiling faces drifting past “She's so lovely,” “She's so sweet” Every word feels warm to me Turn my head and hold my pose Perfect dress and perfect bows Every day they say my name Every day it feels the same [Pre-Chorus] Look at me Isn't this what pretty means? *(love me...)* *(let me out...)* [Chorus] Doll Face, Doll Face Everybody loves a Doll Face Pretty eyes and perfect grace Smile for everyone who comes this way Doll Face, Doll Face They tell me I'm their favorite face Then they wave and walk away But I know they'll come again someday [Verse 2] Afternoon becomes the night One by one I lose their light Someone says, “I'd take her home” Then I'm standing here alone Maybe I should smile some more Maybe that's what beauty's for Maybe if I'm good enough Someone might give something back *(Love me...)* *(Let me out...)* [Pre-Chorus] Look at me You said that I was everything Why'd you leave? [Chorus] Doll Face, Doll Face Everybody loves a Doll Face Pretty eyes and perfect grace Smile until it starts to ache Doll Face, Doll Face You said I had the sweetest face So why do you keep walking by? Why am I never worth your time? *(Love me... love me...)* *(Let me out...)* [Instrumental Break] [soft music box, distant room tone] [Bridge] Don't turn off the lights yet I don't like it when it's quiet I can still hear all your voices Pretty Lovely Perfect Perfect... Is that all I am? *(LOVE ME...)* *(LET ME OUT...)* I don't want another ribbon I don't want another bow I don't want you just to look at me I want you to know [Final Chorus] Doll Face, Doll Face Do you still love your Doll Face? Painted eyes and cracking grace I can't keep this smile in place Doll Face, Doll Face Tell me I'm your favorite face Say it louder Say it now Don't you dare just turn around *(LOVE ME!)* *(LET ME OUT!)* Doll Face, Doll Face Isn't this what you all wanted? Pretty Sweet Perfect *(LOVE ME!!)* *(LET ME OUT!!)* [Outro] Morning light across my face Everything is back in place Someone stops outside again “Oh... she's cute.” ... *(love me...)* *(let me out...)*
