I wanna feel beautiful. I wanna feel comfortable in my skin. But I'm not there yet, don't know if I'll ever be. I wanna feel pretty. I want you to look at me like him, but I can't have that until I can look at me too. Why's it so hard to be myself? Why's it so hard to be happy? I'm tired of wanting. I'm tired of needing. Why can't I just be happy with what I have? You don't feel beautiful. You don't wanna leave the house at all, but I still see it, even if you don't believe it. You don't feel pretty. You want me to look at you like that, but I always have, and I want you too, too. Why's it so hard to be ourselves? Why's it so hard to be happy? We're tired of wanting. We're tired of needing. Why can't we just be happy?
