fake smiles and pretty faces

i tried so hard to see 

my beauty underneath 

can’t look in the mirror

without having a breakdown

cuz pretty is overrated

putting on different faces

just to hide all my bruises

memories of that girl

i tried so hard to be

why am i insecure

when pretty is overrated

i tried so hard to eat

but my self image

is just too hard to complete

baggy clothes tired faces

all the little things

i just can’t love about myself

memories of those days

when i was myself

cuz pretty is overrated

putting on different faces

just to hide all my bruises

memories of that girl

i tried so hard to be

why am i insecure

when pretty is so overrated
