I don't like it
Your beautiful, but remember to smile
Look at how pretty you are, but suck in that gut
Oh don't you look nice, but let's fix that hair
You'd be prettier if you wore makeup.
I'd be prettier if I didn't care what you thought, if people cared
I'd be prettier if I felt at home in my own skin
I'd be prettier if I loved me
I'm 17 and never had a boyfriend or gone on a date
I don't know what to do
I'm lost and alone in this world made for two
I have yet to meet you and yet I long to greet you
Oh what will I do?
Another day I cannot wait
Until I can be in your embrace
How it hurts to feel this way
I don't know you yet and still I feel I do
As you live your life I'll be here for you
Here waiting
I can't wait to meet you
And no longer be alone in this world made for two
Straight up horrible
I hate my heart
I hate how it pains
Over every misfortune that turns my way
"Overlooked" ruins it
Listen to me
Let me be heard
All my pain and stories, are not to be overlooked
Share with me in this pain
Because though your face hides the truth
I know you feel it too
