If I stood before you without my make-up
would you still see the girl that you love
Without the thick black eye-liner on
am I still who you always think of
If I erased all the scars on my body
took away all the hairspray and dye
If there was no lipstick on me
no mascara to run when I cry
Would I still be myself without it all
would I still smile the same way
am I the girl you really want forever
underneath the mask I paint everyday

If you sat there in front of me
holding my hand as if you would never let it go
would you think twice about who your holding
about how much you truly don't know
If you could take off my protective covering
would you be disgusted and leave me here
Would you forget about the love we have
and run away in utter fear
Am I who you want to see dressed in white
walking down that aisle towards you
Am I the one you want to hold forever
If I am, Then darling let me through...
