Lyrics
Buttoned lips, don't make a sound
Keep it pretty, keep it down
Smile wide, don’t let them see
What’s screaming underneath the sweet
Mirror tells me what to hide
Every crack gets painted white
No one wants the truth you bleed
Only dolls that never need
[Pre-Chorus]
So I hush the thunder in my chest
Tie a ribbon 'round the mess
[Chorus]
Be a perfect little girl
With her silence wrapped in pearls
No more questions, no more pain
If they can’t hear, they can’t blame
Lock it up, swallow the key
Silence is the price to be
Flawless in their broken world
A perfect little girl
[Verse 2]
Every "no" becomes a "yes"
Every scar is just a dress
Taught to sit and never scream
Good girls only cry in dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
So I bite my tongue until it’s numb
Fake a world where I belong
[Chorus]
Be a perfect little girl
With her silence wrapped in pearls
No more questions, no more pain
If they can’t hear, they can’t blame
Lock it up, swallow the key
Silence is the price to be
Flawless in their broken world
A perfect little girl
[Bridge]
They love you quiet, love you neat
With your hands tucked at your feet
They love you still, love you small
But silence isn’t peace at all
[Final Chorus]
Be a perfect little girl
But I’m choking on the swirl
Of the truths I never screamed
Of the self I had to leave
Lock me up, throw out the key
Silence built this cage for me
Perfect’s just a poisoned pearl
For a perfect little girl
