War Paint Lyrics

War Paint lyrics

You come in while i´m sitting at the mirror
And you want to say you know that I look nice
I sit in desperate silence and I listen
And with the cutting eye you know you better look twice

Chorus
Cause i´m putting on my warpaint
I´m on the path again
And before you say I look great
You better look again
Red is for the anger that you put me through
And for the nights I felt so lonely
You see a shade of blue
I´ll add a dash of yellow
For the coward that you´ve been
And the black will be the nights ahead
And my shadow in your bed
I´m putting on my war paint

There´s nothing you can say to make it better
And there´s no apology to change my mind
I guess I could have wrote a dear john letter
But it´s written on my face
It´s war paint time

Repeat chorus

I´m putting on my war paint
I´m putting on my war paint
Red is for the anger that you put me through
I´m putting on my war paint
And for the nights I felt so lonely you see a shade of blue
