Not Your Mannequin

[Intro] [guitar feedback, crowd noise] Sew me in your Sunday best But I am tearing through this dress [Verse 1] They sell rebellion on a window frame Ripped up denim with a corporate name Glossy covers screaming what to wear Same old body in a different glare You call it timeless, just another trend I call it pressure with a plastic grin [Pre Chorus] I am not your hanger on the wall I am the feedback shaking through this hall [Chorus] Fashion sucks, I am not your mannequin Cut these strings, feel my heartbeat kick in You can keep your runway, I will keep my scars Thrift store halo, I shine like broken stars Fashion sucks, watch me rip your script in half [Verse 2] You chase seasons like a moving light Fast thread dying in a single night Sweatshop secrets in a silver seam But they airbrush it into a dream You call it flawless, I can see the stains All that glitter cannot cover up the pain [Pre Chorus] I am not your hanger on the wall I am the feedback shaking through this hall [Chorus] Fashion sucks, I am not your mannequin Cut these strings, feel my heartbeat kick in You can keep your runway, I will keep my scars Thrift store halo, I shine like broken stars Fashion sucks, watch me rip your script in half [Bridge] I am done shrinking just to fit your frame Done pulling at the zipper, drowning in the shame Tonight this body is the outfit that I choose If comfort is a crime, then I refuse [Breakdown] [crowd chanting softly: "Fashion sucks, fashion sucks"] [guitar riff building, toms rolling] [Chorus] Fashion sucks, I am not your mannequin Cut these strings, feel my heartbeat kick in You can keep your runway, I will keep my scars Thrift store halo, I shine like broken stars Fashion sucks, hear the crowd scream it back [Outro] [guitar ring out, vocal over noise] No more posing, no more circus tricks Fashion sucks, but tonight the band still hits
