You keep telling yourself that you're ugly

That you can't possibly ever love yourself cause every time you look in the mirror

The stretch marks, loose skin, gap between your front teeth. Overanalysing every single part of yourself, destroying your self esteem

Constantly telling yourself how could anyone ever want you

I wish I could tell you that you're perfect just by being you

I just wish you knew just how much I adore you

How I love even when you're going through some of your toughest times

You still manage to put on a smile and act like everything's fine

How you're going to change the world someday with that incredible mind

Cause everytime you look in the mirror you see something you don't like

I hate how much it hurts you every single time

I hate watching you beat yourself up all the time. When are you gonna realise this ongoing battle you have with yourself... It's a losing fight

You're literally destroying yourself from the inside, trying so hard to be something you're not

You're a beautiful, walking, human sunshine in my eyes

When are you going to understand that being yourself is enough

Constantly seeking validation from other people when what you really need is self-love

Yes I know you don't have the perfect body

So what's the use in tearing yourself appart like this if you think it's gonna help you in any way

I'll never understand how someone so great

Unable to leave the house without make them struggling to cope every day and

You hide behind baggy clothes, watch what you eat

think so much about what people think that you can't even walk down the street

Self-hate has filted its way into every inch of your body

To watch someone I care about so much be so incredibly unhappy

I hope one day you can look at yourself in the mirror and live with what you see

That it doesn't hurt you so much anymore cause you'll understand that you've got more to offer the world than simply being pretty

No longer haunted by the scars on your skin but choosing to be the change they want to see
