about
This is a dark, yet hopeful song about the feeling of being alone.
lyrics
Emotions are embarrassing,
And I'd rather be a doll who doesn't feel a thing,
But lately my threads are tangled up,
My inside's twisting; body's giving up
And if my heart rips at the seams,
Will anybody hear my screams?
Where are the people,
Where do they hide
On black, cold nights when you're trapped inside.
Where are the people,
Is there just one,
Who sews you together when you come undone.
The girls here they sparkle with life,
So I've got to play this part right.
Rehearse in the mirror, pinch my cheeks rosy red,
My looks could kill, but I'm already dead.
And if you see through my disguise,
Will you reach out or avert your eyes?
Where are the people,
Where do they hide
On black, cold nights when you're trapped inside.
Where are the people,
Is there just one,
Who sews you together when you come undone.
I guess I'm alone in this war,
'Cause my stuffing fell out on the floor,
And the girls dart their eyes around me,
But they laugh and pretend not to see, not to see.
I'm unravelling, unraveling, unraveling.
And as my limbs turned to thread,
I looked at them and I said:
Where are the people,
Where do they hide
On black, cold nights when you're trapped inside.
Where are the people,
Is there just one,
Who sews you together when you come undone.
