Kelsea Ballerini

Homecoming Queen?

Hey homecoming queen

Why do you lie

When somebody's mean

Where do you hide

Do people assume

You're always alright

Been so good at smiling

Most of your life

Look damn good in the dress

Zipping up the mess

Dancing with your best foot forward

Does it get hard

To have to play the part

Nobody's feeling sorry for ya

But what if I told you the world wouldn't end

If you started showing what's under your skin

What if you let em all in on the lie

Even the homecoming queen cries

Hey homecoming queen

How's things at home

Still walking on eggshells

When that curtains closed

Did your daddy teach you

How to act tough

Or more like your momma

Sweep it under the rug

Look damn good in the dress

Zipping up the mess

Dancing with your best foot forward

Did you want the crown

Or does it weigh you down

Nobody's feeling sorry for ya

What if I told you the world wouldn't end

If you started showing what's under your skin

What if you let em all in on the lie

Even the homecoming queen cries

Yeah what if I told you the sky wouldn't fall

If you lost your composure, said to hell with it all

Not everything pretty sparkles and shines

And even the homecoming queen cries

Oh yeah

Even the homecoming queen cries

Hey homecoming queen

Why do you lie

When somebody's mean

Where do you hide
