Lyrics for War Paint by Rush:
| | | Artist: | Rush |
| | Album: | Presto | | Track: | War Paint | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 168 | | | | Lyrics: | Girl before the mirror
Appraises her disguise
Child become a mother
Tries to fix her
eyes
No more of his excuses
It has to be today
She can keep her fantasy
If she
can get away
Paint her name on a one-way street
Painted cheeks with angry
heat
Wounded pride on painted eyes
Paint the night with battlecries
All puffed
up with vanity
We see what we want to see
To the beautiful and the wise
The mirror
always lies
Boy before the mirror
Checks his camouflage
Polishes his
armor
And the charger in the garage
No more lame excuses
It has to be tonight
He
can take the princess
If he can take the fight
Pound the drums with martial
beat
Pound the streets with marching feet
Wounded pride, distorted eyes
Paint the
night with battlecries
All puffed up with vanity
We see what we want to see
To
the powerful and the wise
The mirror always lies
Boys and girls
together
Mistake conceit for pride
Girls and boys together
See what it
is we lack
Boys and girls together
Let's paint the mirror black
Paint it black | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
