Lyrics
Intro
Hmm
(Looking different)
Mm-hmm
Chorus
Blending all the shades to hide the fear
Changing every morning like a ghost in the mirror
Knowing how your vision pulls you far away
I rewrite my features just to make you stay
Just to make you stay
Make you stay
Verse 1
Silver lines and crimson stains on porcelain skin
Searching for the version you might let in
Heavy lids hiding what is real
False lashes provide a perfect seal
Sharp angles painted where they do not grow
Pre-Chorus
Tracing lines
Drawing lines
Painting lines
Because I know your eyes are never satisfied
Chorus
Blending all the shades to hide the fear
Changing every morning like a ghost in the mirror
Knowing how your vision pulls you far away
I rewrite my features just to make you stay
Just to make you stay
Post-Chorus
Oh oh
Coloring it in
Oh oh
Verse 2
Every street contains a girl who looks like bait
Waiting for the moment you decide my fate
Contrast is the only language you speak
Liquid ink makes my resolve look weak
Stenciled brows won't stop the way you drift toward her
Pre-Chorus
Tracing lines
Drawing lines
Painting lines
Because I know your eyes are never satisfied
Chorus
Blending all the shades to hide the fear
Changing every morning like a ghost in the mirror
Knowing how your vision pulls you far away
I rewrite my features just to make you stay
Just to make you stay
Post-Chorus
Oh oh
Coloring it in
Oh oh
Hiding under pigment
Bridge
Maybe if I mask the tired bone
Maybe if I mask the silent phone
Maybe if I mask the truth alone
The wandering heart won't find a brand new home
Chorus
Blending all the shades to hide the fear
Changing every morning like a ghost in the mirror
Knowing how your vision pulls you far away
I rewrite my features just to make you stay
Just to make you stay
Make you stay
