Glossy Books

There's nothing that I could say
 To make her change the way she thinks
 Page one is all she wants to be
 It wasn't a phase to her
 It wasn't a part of growing up
 Don't compare yourself
 To some 13 year old who needs help
 The girl inside
 You tried to hide
 Is all you needed to be
 It's only looks
 You can't compare
 Yourself to all those glossy books
 I know you know what's right
 You need to see
 The reason why you can't pretend
 You'll never be satisfied
 You'll never be quite the way you want
 Don't try to hide it
 Of course you're so pretty now
 And you did everything they said to do
 You can be happy now
 You're beautiful and beautifully dead
 The girl inside
 You tried to hide
 Is all you needed to be
 It's only looks
 You can't compare
 Yourself to all those glossy books
 I know you know what's right
 You need to see
 The reason why you can't pretend
 I know you know what's right
 You need to see
 The reason why you can't pretend
 And time unfolds the reasons
 They don't come
 And life reveals the seasons
 They don't come yeah
 Time unfolds the reasons
 The girl inside
 You tried to hide
 Is all you needed to be
 It's only looks
 You can't compare
 Yourself to all those glossy books
 Time heals sometimes
 Time heals sometimes
 Then you know what's right
