Not A Pretty Girl

I may not be a pretty girl

But I hold my tongue when I have to

And I speak up when I want to

And if you wanna know my mind

You can take your place in line

 

I am not a pretty girl

I don’t pretend to be

Your camera isn’t interested

Dont point that thing at me

I am not a pretty girl

But don’t fool yourself and believe

I am not a pretty girl

But I don’t wanna be

 

I may not be a pretty girl

But I can beat you on your best day

I will try til I’m exhausted

And if you wanna know about me

You can try to figure out me

 

I am not a pretty girl

I don’t pretend to be

Your camera isn’t interested

Dont point that thing at me

I am not a pretty girl

But don’t fool yourself and believe

I am not a pretty girl

But I don’t wanna be

 

You may not be a pretty girl

Boys might never look at you

But when they call you ugly

Now you know what you can do

To believe, that you don’t have to want to be

 

I am not a pretty girl

I don’t pretend to be

Your camera isn’t interested

Dont point that thing at me

I am not a pretty girl

But don’t fool yourself and believe

I am not a pretty girl

But I don’t wanna be

Waste

So you’ve had enough of this life

So you’re ready to run

Say you’ve had enough of this life

You ready the gun

 

There’s places you haven’t seen

That’ll make you feel at home

There’s people you haven’t spoke to

About things you don’t understand

There’s things you haven’t done

That’ll make you feel alive

Why you wanna waste all you didn’t do

Why you wanna waste the rest of your life

 

Their words can feel hard

But you can be harder

Their blows can feel strong

But I know you’re stronger

Your sighs and sobs are all they want

Why you wanna give them everything

 

So you’ve had enough of this life

So you’re ready to run

Say you’ve had enough of this life

You ready the gun

 

There’s places you haven’t seen

That’ll make you feel at home

There’s people you haven’t spoke to

About things you don’t understand

There’s things you haven’t done

That’ll make you feel alive

Why you wanna waste all you didn’t do

Why you wanna waste the rest of your life
