Empty Face

She doesn't see it in the mirror
Something about her isn't right
she make look stunning to us,
but she's breaking down tonight
She's not like you and me
she's got tally marks
all the way to Tennessee
one for each successful
scumbag seduction
And what you need now
a little self respect somehow
And what you need now
is a mother who loves you

Don't need a man to decide
don't need another to define
who you are girl
don't need that man who has
anyone's face and his car's
waiting right outside
don't need a man to define you

She waits at the bar
alone, lonely
longing to feel lovely to
someone, everyone
she's scared
but she never
admits that to herself
she finds a new target
hones in upon it
pieces of her slip away
The next day,
it's been another
successful scumbag seduction

And what you need now
a little self respect somehow
And what you need now
is a mother who loves you

Don't need a man to decide
don't need another to define
who you are girl
Don't need that man who has
anyone's face and his car's
waiting right outside
Don't need a man to define you

She only feels beautiful
when she is in someone else's bed
She only feels beautiful
when she is in someone else's bed

Don't need a man to decide
don't need another to define
who you are girl
Don't need that man who has
anyone's face and his car's
waiting right outside
Don't need a man to define you
