When you wake up in the morning
You pull yourself (together) in front of the mirror
Only flaws you see
(You) put on more make-up
when you again have to play
perfect Miss (beauty pageant title)
Others' looks are criticizing
so consider your moves/signs/actions
think hard what you do
hide opinions
but I hope that you see
all of this is fickle
I see deeper than the surface
and I tell you that to me you don't have to pretend
So peel/take off that shell (figurative)
You're perfectly flawed
and I don't want any more than that
Peel/take off that shell
Hey give up that pointless role
you don't have to pretend
You're perfectly flawed
and I don't want any more than that
Hey give up that pointless role
you don't have to pretend
I try to come to chat
but you turn your head and pass me by
You don't let me through your wall
Still I could swear
that you seem to wish
that I melt you from that ice

oo ooh
Believe me when I say it
that to me you don't have to pretend
So peel/take off that shell (figurative)
You're perfectly flawed
and I don't want any more than that
Peel/take off that shell
Hey give up that pointless role
you don't have to pretend

and I don't want any more than that
Hey give up that pointless role
