If only, I were different, I'm sure a better life I'd find.
If only, I were prettier, I'd be more content, in my own mind.
If only, I were thinner, then I'd fit in, this world around me.
If only, I were different, I would be happy as happy could be.If only, you could see, everyone is different, in their own way.
If only, you could see, your soul is prettier than just a face.
If only, you could see, to change your size won't change your world.
If only, you could see, your happiness comes from accepting who you are, above all else.So this may ring true for many of us. How often do we think "If only..." yet, as the above shows, even if the things were changed that you wished for, it wouldn't change anything. Live that good life now, be content now with who you are, changing your shape won't change your world, find your happiness within.
