Standing in a white dress
Flying in the shadows
Looking for a savior
In the pouring rain

Pretty on the outside
Empty on the inside
Heading for the downside
No one left to blame

Some people run from themselves
To try to be someone else
But it's all the same

You can hide behind perfection
You can dress yourself in lace
'Cause it's all about perception
And you're just hiding
Hiding behind the face

Living the high life
Always in the spotlight
Never ordinary
But it's all a game

All you ever wanted
Everything you've dreamed of
Is gonna drag you under
And you'll just fade away

So many hurting themselves
To try to feel something else
Running from the pain

You can hide behind perfection
You can dress yourself in lace
'Cause it's all about perception
And you're just hiding
Hiding behind the face

You can hide behind perfection
You can dress yourself in lace
'Cause it's all about perception
And you're just hiding (hiding)
Hiding behind the face

You can hide behind perfection
You can dress up all in lace
You wanna talk about deception?
Well, you're just hiding behind the face
You're just hiding behind the face
You're just hiding
Hiding behind the face
