Now I can withstand
Most anything
Even if it hurts
I can take it (I can take it)
I held it in
To protect myself
But in your eyes
I must have seemed
So nice and shining
I’m dirty and in pain
I’m wrapping around myself
So this ugly, black light
Won’t come seeping out
I may seem like a brand new,
White gem
But you don’t even know
What’s inside
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
Why do you like me so much?
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
When I’m so stained
Why do you try to look inside me?
Why do you poke at me
Forcefully?
You think you can open
My heart like that?
When it’s closed so tight?
You think I’m going to break apart?
I’m dirty and in pain
I’m wrapping around myself
So this ugly, black light
Won’t come seeping out
I may seem like a brand new
White gem
But you don’t even know
What’s inside
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
Why do you like me so much?
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
When I’m so stained
I wish you would leave me alone
Even if I’m no good, this is just me
You already saw it
So let go
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
Why do you like me so much?
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
When I’m so stained
