Porcelain by KAYE Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All my life, I've lived on the outside
It's fine, I shouldn't be surprised
You say so much with your eyes
What do I not dazzle you?

I don't do the dance you'd like me to
I thought this was the future but
I still need your approval just
To get on with my day

[Chorus]
I could play it up
Until you call my bluff
Pretend I'm porcelain
Another poster princess

Hey!

Hey!
[Verse 2]
Gawking eyes, I'm calm but terrified
The corners of my doll mouth painted up
Just aim to please, don't make a fuss

Determine worth by what we see
Ignoring oceans underneath
But I'm so bored of saying please
Love me love me love me, baby
Do you love me? Oh

[Chorus]
I could play it dumb
Until you come undone
Pretend I'm porcelain
Another poster princess

Hey!

Hey!

[Verse 3]
All my life, I've lived on the outside
It's fine, I shouldn't be surprised
You say so much with your eyes
Well, I'm fading in your grip again
All milquetoasted and mannequinned
Will you miss me when I'm just them?
Will you miss me when I'm just like all the rest?

[Chorus]
I could play it up
Until you call my bluff
Pretend I'm porcelain
Another poster princess

I could play it up (down on my knees)
Until you call my bluff (just what you need)
Perfect and porcelain
But I'm not your poster princess

Hey!

Hey!

(Down o my knees) Hey!

(Just what you need)

Hey!
