girl eye hatred
and god help you if you are an ugly girl course too pretty is also your doom cause everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room and god help you if you are a pheonix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying back
mirrors ifs fades
If you don't live what you sing about, your mirror is gonna fade.
laughing trying
...I try to laugh at whatever life brings...
treats happened
Don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.
inspiring answers asks
If you don't ask the right question, every answer seems wrong -
order lessons clarity
a lesson must be lived in order to be learned and the clarity to see and stop this now that is what i've earned
running trying lines
and I try to draw the line but it ends up running down the middle of me most of the time.
girl pretty-girl want
I am not a pretty girl. I don't want to be a pretty girl. No, I want to be more than a pretty girl.
ocean swim ships
I can jump ship and swim-- that the ocean will hold me, that there's got to be more than this boat I'm in.
girl dirty knowing
Imagine you're a girl, just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty and smiling.
real believe scare
What bugs me is that you believe what you're saying. What bothers me is that you don't know how you feel. What scares me is that while you're telling me stories, you actually believe that they are real.
challenges want bed
If you want to challenge the system, don't go to bed with it.
running eye hands
Like how could you do nothing, and say, 'I'm doing my best.' How could you take almost everything, and then come back for the rest? How could you beg me to stay, reach out your hands and plead, and then pack up your eyes and run away as soon as I agreed?
mean eye love-is
You rhapsodize about beauty, and my eyes glaze. Everything that I love is ugly. I mean really, you would be amazed. Just do me a favor, it's the least that you can do, just don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.
