Nessa Barrett - Dying On The Inside

You should take this as a compliment
If I were you, I would be more confident
You're lucky that you're pretty
Why are you obsessed with your appearance
I don't wanna hear it, you're fine

It's been my best kept secret for a while now
No one ever sees it but it's all around
It's the dinner conversation no one talks about
Don't know how much longer I can keep this down

Beauty is a knife, I've been harmed by the blade
Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything
It's all a lie
Honestly it's eating me alive
They're all like did you change your hair?
Did you lose a bit of weight?
You should keep it up cause it really looks great
I hate that I
Always look my best
When I'm dying on the inside
When I'm dying on the inside

I wish I could break the mirror
That makes me feel like I should fucking disappear
Drown my demons in a bathtub filled with tears
No matter what I try they always seem to come back to life

What if I didn't do this to my body?
What if I quit and then you don't want me
The dinner conversation no one talks about
Don't know how much longer I can keep this down

Beauty is a knife, I've been harmed by the blade
Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything
It's all a lie
Honestly it's eating me alive
They're all like did you change your hair?
Did you lose a little weight?
You should keep it up cause it really looks great
I hate that I
Always look my best
When I'm dying on the inside
When I'm dying on the inside
When I'm dying on the inside
When I'm dying on the inside

Take this is a compliment
If I were you I'd me more confident
You're lucky that your pretty
Why are you obsessed?
With your appearance
I don't wanna hear it, you're fine

Beauty is a knife, I've been harmed by the blade
Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything
It's all a lie
Honestly it's eating me alive
They're all like did you change your hair?
Did you lose a little weight?
You should keep it up cause it really looks great
I hate that I
Always look my best
When I'm dying on the inside
