[Verse 1]
There's a lot of me
Take it off
Glitter and gloss runs deep
Like a silver screen
Take me back
Show me what I failed to see
[Bridge]
When you spell it out
You spell so mean
When you're taking me from A to Z
Are we black or white?
Or in between?
Are the figures where they used to be?
[Chorus]
Like an empty canvas, hear me cry
Like a masterpiece, I'm in your eyes
Now your colors are in front of me
We're a picture-perfect oddity
[Verse 2]
I'm a lot like you
Pretty shape
Layered and laid in dirt
Let the blood run wild
What I feel
Show me how to make it real
[Bridge]
When you spell it out
You spell so mean
When you're taking me from A to Z
Are we black or white?
Or in between?
Are the figures where they used to be?
[Chorus]
Like an empty canvas, hear me cry
Like a masterpiece, I'm in your eyes
Now your colors are in front of me
We're a picture-perfect oddity
[Verse 3]
The streets are full of eyes
And they're all dressed up like they know me
But I don't mind that I'm alone
'Cause in all else aside
I think of you, how you told me
That we'll be shining in our own
[Outro]
Let it go to your head
They told you glamour is dead
Romance, true love is dead
Really that's what they said
Getting lost in the light
Now there's a shadow of us
Playing games in the dust
Dreams of glitter and gloss
Getting lost in the light
Now there's a shadow of us
Playing games in the dust
Dreams of glitter and gloss
