perfect girls like her

She's prettier than me
Blue eyes like the sea
Blonde hair so perfect
I say I don't care
But really who is she
But a trophy made of gold
And she crosses my mind more than once at a time
So it be told
I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to be her
But I'm trying to admire my own self-worth

It's so fucking hard when I look all around
All the princess-like faces so I look to the ground
Can't afford to compare myself to beauty and grace
When I can't even look at my own goddamn face
The mirror is my enemy, I don't know serenity
How can I love me when all that I see
Are the perfect girls like her

She's so confident
Must be heaven sent
I wish I could know what that feels like
I act like I really got my shit together
But I think I will doubt myself every day and forever
I see my potential but my looks are circumstantial at best

But it's so fucking hard when I look all around
All the picture-perfect faces so I look to the ground
Can't afford to compare myself to beauty and grace
When I can't even look at my own goddamn face
The mirror is my enemy, I don't know serenity
How can I love me when all that I see
Are the perfect girls like her

I know my heart is a diamond
But is it enough, am I enough
I used to have pride, but now I can't find it
My mind is in handcuffs, bruised up and scuffed
By perception of perfection
And all of the things that don't matter
I'm tattered, but it wasn't a monster
This vicious destruction was done by me

It's so fucking hard when I look all around
All the princess-like faces so I look to the ground
Can't afford to compare myself to beauty and grace
When I can't even look at my own goddamn face
The mirror is my enemy, I don't know serenity
How can I love me when all that I see are the perfect girls like her
