dying on the inside (stripped)

[Verse 1] You should take this as a compliment If I were you, I would be more confident You're lucky that you're pretty Why are you obsessed With your appearance? I don't wanna hear it, you're fine [Pre-Chorus 1] It's been my best-kept secret for a while now No one ever sees it, but it's all around It's the dinner conversation no one talks about Don't know how much longer I can keep this down [Chorus] Beauty is the knife I've been holding by the blade Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything It's all a lie, honestly, it's eating me alive They're all like "Did you change your hair?" "Did you lose a little weight?" "You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great" I hate that I always look my best When I'm dying on the inside When I'm dying on the inside [Verse 2] I wish I could break the mirror It makes me feel like I should fucking disappear And drown my demons in a bathtub filled with tears No matter what I try, they always seem to come back to life [Pre-Chorus 2] What if I didn't do this to my body? What if I quit and then you don't want me? The dinner conversation no one talks about Don't know how much longer I can keep this down [Chorus] Beauty is the knife I've been holding by the blade Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything It's all a lie, honestly, it's eating me alive They're all like "Did you change your hair?" "Did you lose a little weight?" "You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great" I hate that I always look my best When I'm dying on the inside When I'm dying on the inside When I'm dying on the inside [Bridge] You should take it as a compliment If I were you, I would be more confident You're lucky that you're pretty Why are you obsessed with your appearance? I don't wanna hear it, you're fine [Chorus] Beauty is the knife I've been holding by the blade Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything It's all a lie, honestly, it's eating me alive They're all like "Did you change your hair?" "Did you lose a little weight?" "You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great" I hate that I always look my best When I'm dying on the inside
