  • Turn the lamp on
    Let me talk to ya
    See that light bulb
    Does something to ya
    Makes it little harder
    To tell a lie don't it
    Make it difficult
    To run and hide don't it
    Told your truth to me
    The truth to me
    Come close to me
    If that's you
    I wanna see the details
    Inside those beautiful eyes
    (Beautiful eyes)

    Myself ain't never talked to me like that before
    And I wonder
    What on earth is he searching for

    No wonder why
    There's no mirrors on these walls no more
    You can't tell me why
    Your so terrified of beautiful
    Scared of the good
    More than the evil
    Scared of the light
    More than the dark
    Scared of a truth so much more than a lie
    I'm scared for me
    I'm scared of me
    Scared of beautiful

    Turn the lamp down
    Don't talk to me
    That light bulb took something from me
    Gave something to me
    I can't decide
    I can't decide
    I took freedom
    Gave purpose
    Can't blame him to perfect
    All this beauty ever came
    It was reason for some beautiful life

    Myself ain't never talked to me like that before
    And I wonder
    What on earth is he searching for

    No wonder why
    There's no mirrors on these walls no more
    You can't tell me why
    Your so terrified of beautiful
    Scared of the good
    More than the evil
    Scared of the light
    More than the dark
    Scared of a truth so much more than a lie
    I'm scared for me

    I'm scared of me

    Mirror mirror on the wall
    Who's the fairest of them all
    Mirror mirror oh your so
    Unfair to all of the beautiful ones oh

    No wonder why
    There's no mirrors on these walls no more
    You can't tell me why
    Your so terrified of beautiful
    Scared of the good
    More than the evil
    Scared of the light
    More than the dark
    Scared of a truth so much more than a lie
    I'm scared for me
    I'm scared of me
    I'm scared of me
    I'm scared of me

    I'm scared to be beautiful
    Beautiful
    Beautiful
