Translation
Bilingual
In front of the mirror, her new lipstick on
The one that would change her whole life
The merciless truth staring her in the face
Her reflection is twisting the knife
That's been stuck in her heart since she was a girl
And learned that she'd have more love if she had only had curls
Behind drawn curtains and a bolted door
She is crying in front of the mirror
Despite the bright light, all she sees
Of her sombre face is a soft blur
Cursing her size and those eyes that make her look sad
Her heart weighed down by the love she never had
She's been buying potions and creams
She's read about in magazines
They've been keeping her with dreams
Every night she sings her heart out
Touching theirs with her song
But at the end of the night you walk home alone
ย
She turns off the light and steps into the shower
Tries to wash off her shame
She'd hoped for a while that her daddy was right
She learned the hard way
In her heart there's no doubt, no need to discuss it
It ain't good nor worse, even easy
It's pretty that does it
And she's been buying potions and creams
She's read about in magazines
They've been keeping her with dreams
Every night she sings her heart out
Touching theirs with her song
But at the end of the night you walk home alone
Yeah, when the show is over, she'll be alone
