dying on the inside

You should take it as a compliment

If I were you, I would be more confident

You′re lucky that you're prettyWhy are you obsessed with your appearance?

I don′t wanna hear it, you're fine

It's been my best-kept secret for a while now

No one ever sees it, but it′s all around

It′s the dinner conversation no one talks about

Don't know how much longer I can keep this down

Beauty is a knife I′ve been holding by the blade

Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything

It′s all a lie, honestly, it's eating me alive

They′re all like

"Did you change your hair?"

"Did you lose a little weight?"

"You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great"

I hate that I always look my best

When I'm dying on the inside

When I′m dying on the inside

I wish I could break the mirror

That makes me feel like I should fucking disappear

And drown my demons in a bathtub filled with tears

No matter what I try, they always seem to come back to life

What if I didn′t do this to my body?

What if I quit and then you don't want me?

The dinner conversation no one talks about

Don′t know how much longer I can keep this down

Beauty is a knife I've been holding by the blade

Swallowing my pride so I won′t eat anything

It's all a lie, honestly, it′s eating me alive

They're all like

"Did you change your hair?"

"Did you lose a little weight?"

"You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great"

I hate that I always look my best

When I′m dying on the inside

When I′m dying on the inside

When I'm dying on the inside

You should take it as a compliment

If I were you, I would be more confident

You′re lucky that you're pretty

Why are you obsessed with your appearance?

I don′t wanna hear it, you're fine

Beauty is a knife I′ve been holding by the blade

Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything

It's all a lie, honestly, it′s eating me alive

They′re all like

"Did you change your hair?"

"Did you lose a little weight?"

"You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great"

I hate that I always look my best
