Pretty's On The Inside

I don't look like her

She's in all the magazines

So much prettier than me

You don't know it hurts

Staring at my iPhone screen

Watching others live their dream

But mama, she said to me

(Mama she said)

One day my love, you'll see

Pretty's on the inside

See it in your own eyes

Look a little closer in the mirror tonight

Pretty's on the inside

But I can't tell my own mind

Maybe if I look a little harder, I'll find

That pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

I don't like myself

But maybe it's all in my head

And I am not the words I've said

These images they sell

Maybe none of it is real

And I could love the way I feel

'Cause mama, she said to me

(Mama she said)

One day I swear you'll see

The pretty's on the inside

See it in your own eyes

Look a little closer in the mirror tonight

The pretty's on the inside

But I can't tell my own mind

Maybe if I look a little harder, I'll find

That pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

'Cause mama, she said to me

Don't live in jealousy

And mama she said to me

You'll see it eventually

The pretty's on the inside

See it in your own eyes

Look a little closer in the mirror tonight

The pretty's on the inside

But I can't tell my own mind

Maybe if I look a little harder, I'll find

The pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside

Pretty's on the inside
