[Intro]
A mirror sighs as powder flakes like snow
Soft whispers trace the cheek where shines the glow
[Verse 1]
Around the sink the colors tell a tale
Blush on laughter, mascara trails that sail
I chase a brush of calm through the bright collide
In every smear, a memory I keep inside
[Chorus]
Makeup mess, a noisy little storm in me
Smudged lines laugh at imperfect harmony
But underneath the smeared masks I still confess
I’m learning to love the mess, not the perfect press
[Verse 2]
Red-kissed sunrise on a stubborn mirror pane
I wipe away the doubt, I breathe again
A glittered shard becomes a window through
To a girl who mutters, I’m enough, it’s true
[Pre-Chorus]
And if the powder falls, I’ll lift my chin
Dust myself off, begin again, begin
[Chorus]
Makeup mess, a noisy little storm in me
Smudged lines laugh at imperfect harmony
But underneath the smeared masks I still confess
I’m learning to love the mess, not the perfect press
[Bridge]
Tiny miracles in the mess we make
Color on skin, stories in the wake
[Chorus]
Makeup mess, a noisy little storm in me
Smudged lines laugh at imperfect harmony
But underneath the smeared masks I still confess
I’m learning to love the mess, not the perfect press
[Outro]
Here in the mess I find a brighter grace
A brighter grace, in every imperfect face
