Deadly Beauty
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 turns the radio on so no one hears what she's doin'.
Because 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 her only out for every time she's broken down
And hates herself
For everything that's wrong in life, looks in the mirror to criticize
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.
Nineteen one shrink two times a week
But nothings changing.
Mom cries at night, for her life 'cause she knows she is fading
She's tried 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 her only out for every time she's broken down
And hates herself
For everything that's wrong in life, looks in the mirror to criticize
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.
Twenty-three now she's buried Underneath red roses.
I'm gonna miss her and I hope
Someone learns from this.
Maybe she's happy now
Maybe she's finally free
From not feeling good enough
And maybe she's rid of her disease.
She's just a girl who doesn't know
She's already beautiful.
Seven years ago if you had seen her
You would never know.
This would be her only out for every time she's broken down
And hates herself
For everything that's wrong in life, looks in the mirror to criticize
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.
Ooh Ooh
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.
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 turns the radio on so no one hears what she's doin'.
Because she's convinced herself he'll come back to her when she's perfect.
She's just a girl who doesn't know

Ooh Ooh
She'd rather be beautiful than alive.
