Deadly Beauty

Story of a girl who lost her world so she could be beautiful...

Fifteen, so sweet, you'd think
But she's got a secret.
Made up her mind the day she came
To find out he left.
I Guess there's another girl
This time blue eyes and blonde hair
She'll do anything to catch his eye
But she knows she'll never compare.

Skips school, won't eat, can barely sleep
Takes drastic measures. 
Runs seven miles a day in the sun
Wearing a sweater
She turn's the radio on, so no one hears what she's doing
Cause she's convinced herself he'll come back to her when she's perfect.

She's just a girl who doesn't know she's already beautiful
One year ago if you had seen her you would never know
This would be only out for every time she's broken down
And hates herself
For everything that's wrong in live
Looks in the mirror to criticize
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.

Nineteen, one shrink, two times a week
But nothing is changing.
Mom cries at night for her life
Cause she knows she is fading
She's trying to turn around
but she's too far in the wrong direction
it wasn't supposed to be this way
All she wanted was some attention

She's just a girl who doesn't know she's already beautiful
Five years ago if you had seen her you would never know
This would be only out for every time she's broken down
And hates herself
For everything that's wrong in live
Looks in the mirror to criticize
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.

Twenty three now, she buried underneath red rose.
I'm gonna miss her and I hope someone learns from this
Maybe she's happy now, maybe she's finally free
Of not feeling good enough. Maybe she's rid of disease. 

She's just a girl who didn't know she was already beautiful
Seven years ago if you had seen her you would never know
This would be only out for every time she's broken down
And hates herself
For everything that's wrong in live
Looks in the mirror to criticize
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.
