Songtexte terracotta - blackvelvetz

Have I lost my shine
Or have I never shined at all?
Have I lost my mind
Or have I always been off the wall?

Is it just black and white?
Cuz I wanna see this world in full colors
I'm setting myself on fire
Just trying my best to stand out

But in this race of who can sparkle the most
It's so hard to follow
Everyone's a star
And now the standards have gone too far
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta

It's getting crowded in this jewelry box
I can't breathe
It's getting glamourous
I surely will be knocked out it seems
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta

Sometimes I feel cute
Until I see my price next to the others'
"You're worthy", that's not true
Every time I get lost, no one seems to bother

Oh, my, it's such a shame
I don't remember asking to be born this way
Not this size nor this shape
Still I'm trying my best to look great

But in this race of who can sparkle the most
It's so hard to follow
Everyone's a star
And now the standards have gone too far
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta

It's getting crowded in this jewelry box
I can't breathe
It's getting glamourous
I surely will be knocked out it seems
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta

And I know this feeling will go away
But I can't thrive knowing I'll never be the same as them

But in this race of who can sparkle the most
It's so hard to follow
Everyone's a star
And now the standards have gone too far
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta

It's getting crowded in this jewelry box
I can't breathe
It's getting glamourous
I surely will be knocked out it seems
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta

Terracotta
Terracotta
He's silver, she's gold
And I'm terracotta

Terracotta
Terracotta
He's diamond, she's pearls
And I'm terracotta
