Mannequin Runaway
January 22, 2011
Tired of being plastic
Standing for the world to see
Not moving an inch
There's not much I could be
Tired of living hell
Seeing myself as perfect
Force to be fake
Just so I could make it
Ripping off this wig
Tearing down these clothes
Learning how to walk again
No more standing in these rows
Been way too long behind this glass
Wondering what will they say
My real colors will glow
I'm a mannequin runaway
