Pretty Girl I Am Not - Tumblr Posts

I think it’s kinda funny that you like me
‘Cause I don’t really like myself.
Yeah, I think it’s kinda crazy that you want me
‘Cause I don’t really want myself.
~
I’m just a girl
Not pearl
Not too shiny
Or a beauty
But you say that
I am anyway.
~
I think you're kinda crazy
But maybe that’s me
‘Cause I don’t really
See what you see….
~
Not sure if I like this
Or it’s just low-self esteem
Tripping me up when it sees that I’m weak.
~
Yeah, I wanna believe
Just wanna believe what you say is true….
But there’s a part of me
That you don’t even see
And it’s the part of me that I hate
Clouding my mind with its daze
How can you love this mess in the mirror?
~
I think it’s kinda funny that you like me
‘Cause I don’t really like myself
Yeah, I think it’s kinda crazy that you want me
‘Cause I don’t really want myself.
~
I’m just a girl
In a material world
Trying to find where
I fit in the mold.
~
Is there even a mold
That could hold me?
Or is there nowhere that I can go?
~
I don’t really know
I don’t really know
Why you think that I’m gold
When I’m a rock and don’t let you close.
~
I think it’s kinda funny…
Yeah, I think it’s kinda crazy
That you love me even when I don’t.
~
What do you see?
Oh, tell me what you see….
Faded tear tracks on cheeks
Or the blood on my teeth from...
Oh, wait, that’s lipstick you see
Trying to hide the real me
Beneath the paint of the world
And I’m like, “Oh my gosh, is that me?”
Yeah, it’s funny what you see when you hide.
~
What do you see?
Do you really see me?
Or a puppet on a string
Suspended from the sky.
~
I don’t really know
Yeah, I don’t really know
How to feel but I know one thing is true.
~
I think it’s kinda funny…
Yeah, I think it’s kinda crazy
That you love me even when I don’t.
