pretty isn't pretty

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bought a bunch of makeup, tryna cover up my face I started to skip lunch, stopped eatin' cake on birthdays I bought a new prescription to try and stay calm 'Cause there's always somethin' missin' There's always somethin' in the mirror that I think looks wrong [Chorus] When pretty isn't pretty enough, what do you do? And everybody's keepin' it up, so you think it's you I could change up my body and change up my face I could try every lipstick in every shade But I'd always feel the same 'Cause pretty isn't pretty enough anyway [Verse 2] You can win the battle, but you'll never win the war You fix thе things you hated, and you'd still feel so insecure And I try to ignorе it, but it's everythin' I see It's on the poster on the wall, it's in the shitty magazines It's in my phone, it's in my head, it's in the boys I bring to bed It's all around, it's all the time, I don't know why I even try [Chorus] When pretty isn't pretty enough, what do you do? And everybody's keepin' it up, so you think it's you I could change up my body and change up my face I could try every lipstick in every shade But I'd always feel the same 'Cause pretty isn't pretty enough [Bridge] And I bought all the clothes that they told me to buy I chased some dumb ideal my whole fucking life And none of it matters, and none of it ends You just feel like shit over and over again [Outro] No, it'll never change Pretty isn't pretty enough, mmm Everybody's keepin' it up, oh Pretty isn't pretty enough Pretty isn't
