La Carita

Tired of putting on makeup on her face
Take a good look if she's just a young lady
Tired of putting on makeup on her face
Take a good look if she's just a young lady

Tired of being the perfect woman
The one who says yes but never protests
The one who claims to be happy
Fed up with being used as a mannequin
She's had sex but not love
She doesn't know what love is
Every weekend she goes partying
She doesn't know what happened when she wakes up
She goes back home
Looks in the mirror
Doesn't recognize her own reflection
On social media, she's very popular
Her sexy photos make her stand out
She knows she's pretty and what they want from her
She gets what she wants with her beauty
Taking off her makeup feels better
But she knows nothing cures her pain
Alcohol and drugs to forget
A broken family that makes her cry
She lifts her head, makes herself pretty
Tonight she has a date

She knows she'll shine even though she's suffering inside
She feels like crying but keeps smiling above all

Tired of putting on makeup on her face
Take a good look if she's just a young lady
Tired of putting on makeup on her face
Take a good look if she's just a young lady

The girl doesn't want to anymore
The girl doesn't want to anymore
The girl doesn't want to anymore
The girl doesn't want to anymore

Short dress, sneakers
She takes a deep breath, looks up
She knows what's going to happen
But she doesn't know another life
She wants to study
And find another way to make a living
She's 16 and if you saw her
She looks older than she is
She never had a father figure
To tell her what was right
She's empty inside
Doesn't know how to take control
Afraid of making mistakes
Of facing another disappointment
Thinks she's weak if she opens her heart
And if she opens her legs, that's another story
She's not as bad as she seems
Thinks she's happy with what she invents
She feels lonely even when with someone
Hasn't met anyone who takes her breath away
Drugs
Don't help even if she wants
She knows they see her as just anyone
Pretends nothing's wrong
But the pain is visible in her eyes

Tired of putting on makeup on her face
Take a good look if she's just a young lady
Tired of putting on makeup on her face
Take a good look if she's just a young lady
