Now I can withstand most anything
Even if it hurts, I can take it (I can take it)

I held it in to protect myself
But in your eyes, I must have seemed so nice and shining

I’m dirty and in pain
I’m wrapping around myself
So this ugly, black light
Won’t come seeping out
I may seem like a brand new, white gem
But you don’t even know what’s inside

Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
Why do you like me so much?
Just saying, how pretty, how pretty
Just saying, how fair, how fair
Just saying, how shiny, how shiny
When I’m so stained

Why do you try to look inside me?
Why do you poke at me forcefully?
You think you can open my heart like that?
When it’s closed so tight?
You think I’m going to break apart?
