Hello
"She's really pretty, she's really thin"
They say, but they don't see within.
It makes me laugh, It makes me cry
They think I'm on a constant high
They say I'm friendly, always smile
Think I'm perfect all the while,
But that is only what I do
To make the room appear less blue,
While really, what you never see
Is all the real sides to me...
If you really looked, with *all your eyes
Then you would see me trapped inside.
I hate the sun I hate the light
And even more I hate the night.
You'd see a monster, eyes of black
A creature waiting to attack
A rip that tears across my chest
With red that pours, that represents
My faith
Which drains from deep within
Down crumbling fragments of burning skin,
The Demons claws rip me apart
They screwed up my mind and they punctured my heart
And blood keeps spilling all the time
From this beaten soul of mine
So shut your mouth and use your eyes
And look behind the sweet disguise,
I am not pretty and who cares if I'm thin
Because all that counts is what's within.
They say, but they don't see within.
It makes me laugh, It makes me cry
They think I'm on a constant high
They say I'm friendly, always smile
Think I'm perfect all the while,
But that is only what I do
To make the room appear less blue,
While really, what you never see
Is all the real sides to me...
If you really looked, with *all your eyes
Then you would see me trapped inside.
I hate the sun I hate the light
And even more I hate the night.
You'd see a monster, eyes of black
A creature waiting to attack
A rip that tears across my chest
With red that pours, that represents
My faith
Which drains from deep within
Down crumbling fragments of burning skin,
The Demons claws rip me apart
They screwed up my mind and they punctured my heart
And blood keeps spilling all the time
From this beaten soul of mine
So shut your mouth and use your eyes
And look behind the sweet disguise,
I am not pretty and who cares if I'm thin
Because all that counts is what's within.
