The Honest Reason Why I Stare
I know no one really sees you
And I hope you don't hate it
When I put you in my songs
But I'm trying to right a wrong
You're not supposed to be
A mantle piece for them to ignore
And if they don't recognise your worth
Pick anywhere else to be on this earth
If you can
Say this out loud!
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me I'm not
Please take care of the goodness
Of your heart that you've shown
It will lift the world
Like only a girl like you can
Remove the constant obstructions
Those stupid useless clouds
Don't let them waste your precious time
They'll only block out the sunshine
If you can
Say this out loud!
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me I'm not
When you stare at your own reflection
Convince her that you're close to your
Own goddamn perfection
I hope you know
You're something special to me
And that I cannot help but stare
To make sure you know I know that you're there
If you can
Say this out loud
I'm good enough
I'm better than
I'm good enough
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me
If you can
Say this loud!
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me I'm not
And I hope you don't hate it
When I put you in my songs
But I'm trying to right a wrong
You're not supposed to be
A mantle piece for them to ignore
And if they don't recognise your worth
Pick anywhere else to be on this earth
If you can
Say this out loud!
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me I'm not
Please take care of the goodness
Of your heart that you've shown
It will lift the world
Like only a girl like you can
Remove the constant obstructions
Those stupid useless clouds
Don't let them waste your precious time
They'll only block out the sunshine
If you can
Say this out loud!
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me I'm not
When you stare at your own reflection
Convince her that you're close to your
Own goddamn perfection
I hope you know
You're something special to me
And that I cannot help but stare
To make sure you know I know that you're there
If you can
Say this out loud
I'm good enough
I'm better than
I'm good enough
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me
If you can
Say this loud!
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
I'm good enough!
I'm better than
Everyone who tells me I'm not
