## Lyrics
[verse]
Billboard smile a hundred feet tall
Nobody sees the cracks behind it all
Every flashbulb is a little piece of me
Sold to the highest bidder, wrapped up pretty

[chorus]
Look at the shine, look at the gleam
Nothing's quite as real as it seems
Underneath the gloss and the golden skin
There's a girl still wondering where she's been

[verse]
They want the poster, not the person underneath
Perfect angles, camera-ready teeth
I built this shell to keep the world at bay
Now I can't remember how to take it away

[chorus]
Look at the shine, look at the gleam
Nothing's quite as real as it seems
Underneath the gloss and the golden skin
There's a girl still wondering where she's been

[bridge]
Maybe if I peel it back layer by layer
There's a face that isn't for the paper
Not for sale, not for the flash
Just a girl who's tired of playing the part

[chorus]
Look at the shine, look at the gleam
Nothing's quite as real as it seems
Underneath the gloss and the golden skin
There's a girl still wondering where she's been
