Look at her smile
a guy on each arm
but beneath her makeup she is
wearing a frown

and listen to her laugh
guys on every side
but under her laughter she is
running on pride

it helps hide the hurt
helps her hide it away
trinkets and toys
good looking boys
to get through the day
helps her live out a lie
and believe that its true

Look into her eyes
where blue fades to gray
where all of the things that money can buy
are slipping away

Look at her dance
she's like a parade
but the costume she's wearing, it is
specially made

to help hide the hurt
help her hide it away
trinkets and toys
good looking boys
to get through the day
helps her live out a lie
and believe that its true
