[Verse 1]
Hair curled
Good girl in the hallway
Lip gloss
Laugh track on replay
Posed up
Matching frames on the staircase
We look so proud on the staircase
[Pre-Chorus]
Can they see the crack in the family photo?
Can they hear the fight through the bedroom door?
I keep standing straight in the frame they chose though
But my knees feel weak on this perfect floor
[Chorus]
Picture perfect hurts like hell
Smile on my face
But you can't tell
I'm dying in the details
Breaking at the edges
Holding up a life that's all pretending
Too much weight for me to take
I don't want it
Don't want to be fake
Picture perfect hurts like hell
[Verse 2]
Dinner talk
Pass salt
Pass the silence
Chipped plates
Forced grace
Private violence
We post "so blessed" while the walls keep shaking
Filter out the truth
But my hands keep shaking
[Pre-Chorus]
Can they see the crack in the family photo?
Can they hear the glass when it hits the floor?
I keep saying "fine" like a worn-out motto
But the word feels wrong in my throat now more
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Let the mascara run
Let the good girl slip
Let the world see one
Unedited pic
If they turn away
Then they never stayed
I'd rather be ruined
Than perfectly fake
[Chorus]
