She wears the dark makeup
She's got the purple hair
But she smiles and says hello to you
When you pass her by out there

She has black rings
And her outfit's a mix of dark colors
But she'd be happy to sit by you
If you're lonely eating your lunch

She'll stay home all day with just her books
But loves to spend time with her friends
She doesn't care to have pointless conversations
And even if you offend her, keeps her anger in check

She doesn't let you in for many reasons
Her trust's been broken too many times to count
She uses her personality and appearance
To confuse you and make her seem impossible to figure out

She's got a big heart
No matter how you see it
And if you try harder
She might just let you in

She tries to be herself
But her personalities contradict
She's a mix of good and bad,
She's the rebel with a mask

She's lost and confused
She's feeling her power dull
She won't let herself be abused
By the world

So she becomes
A dark kind of beautiful

And she embraces
Her dark kind of beautiful
