pretty 4 who?

Mirror on my bedroom wall Tell me I'm pretty,

I don't feel it at all

Taking pictures, delete them again

Why do I hate what I see through the lens?

Everybody says I'm fine So why am I staring at myself all

night?

Got a hundred things I'd change If I could just get out

of my own way

And I know,

I know

It's getting old

But I can't

let go

Pretty

for who?

Who am I trying to prove it to?

Changing my face, changing my clothes Trying to be somebody I don't

even know Pretty

for what?

Why isn't being me enough?

Everybody says I'm beautiful But I don't see what they're talking about

Pretty

for who?

I'm so tired of trying to

Lip gloss, new hair,

same old doubt

Smile for the pictures,

cry when they're out

If I looked like her,

would I feel okay?

Or would I find

something else to hate?

I wanna look in the mirror

And not look away

I wanna believe myself When I hear what they say

Pretty

for who?

I don't wanna prove it to you

I'm done changing everything I know Just to feel like I'm enough

on my own Pretty

for what?

Maybe I'm more than what I'm not Someday I'll see what they

see in me And maybe that girl will finally feel free Pretty

for who?

Maybe I'm pretty for me,

too.
