Beautiful

She’s beautiful
Oh, she tries
But you don’t know
How hard she cries
At night before she
Drifts off to sleep

‘Cuz at her school
Almost everyone has
Blonde hair, and oh
A boyfriend
I guess she just
Doesn’t fit in

One minute, blood’s
Running down her arm
The next second, she’s
Playing up her charm
Fighting to survive
Wants to feel alive
‘Cuz she doesn’t know
She’s beautiful

She’s judged by
The way she looks
Her music and favorite
Books and can’t seem
To escape this hell!

She’s upset at every
Moment
Dying, but she won’t
Show it, absolutely
Screaming for help
 
One minute, blood’s
Running down her arm
The next second, she’s
Playing up her charm
Fighting to survive
Wants to feel alive
‘Cuz she doesn’t know
She’s beautiful

One day, she’ll
Give up her battle
Give up on life
If she can’t find her
Way to the light
 
One minute, blood’s
Running down her arm
The next second, she’s
Playing up her charm
Fighting to survive
Wants to feel alive
‘Cuz she doesn’t know
She’s beautiful
