Mannequin

by Amanda Cross

/

about

A song about navigating love, loss, and the realization you can never change someone else.

lyrics

I'm running away from everything I am just to be with you
I'm running away until you catch me in your hands and I can't break through
What gave you the right to just throw it all away
What gave you the right to just slap me in my face

You are a mannequin cause how can you be real
You are a mannequin I've never seen you feel
Cause you've got no heart, you got no soul
You're empty inside you're just a hollow hole
There's nothing there that I could ever want

Chasing you down just to have you turn away is the way it goes
I'm not gonna let you suck me in again just to be your ghost
What gave you the right to just throw it all away
What gave you the right to just slap me in my face

You are a mannequin cause how can you be real
You are a mannequin I've never seen you feel
Cause you've got no heart, you got no soul
You're empty inside you're just a hollow hole
There's nothing there that I could ever want

Go away
cause I don't wanna see your face
Messing with my heart
Cause that's all you are to me

You must be a mannequin cuz how can you be real?
You are a mannequin I've never seen you feel.
Cause you've got no heart, you've got no soul
You're empty inside you're just a hollow hole
There's nothing there that I could ever want

about

Amanda Cross New York, New York

If you take the pop appeal of Miranda Lambert and Shania Twain and mix it up with the cool edge of Lana Del Rey and smart songwriting of Brandi Carlisle, that is where we find the artistry of Amanda Cross. You’ll find yourself on a ride up the PCH with “Malibu Daydream” or through a dark alley with the Hitchcockian vibes of “Phantom”, ending up at her country pop roots with “How Did I Get Here”. ... more
