being beautiful sucks

i packed up my boxes
left that breezy scene
i don't want any part of who i was
to follow me under the stars
i tried to be the best version of myself 
i guess it wasn't what i needed
cause everywhere i went seemed to think 
i was prettier when i was a teen
but being beautiful sucks, you know?
so what, is it my body they want? my face?
a face is just a face, but a heart is infinite 
does anyone care about the personality of a person anymore?
or is it all about the external look?
you could be the sweetest person on the inside 
but if you're not conventionally attractive, they won't bat an eye
or what if it's the other way around?
a beauty with an ugly soul?
they'd take you regardless 
even if you're heartless
but being beautiful sucks, you know?
so what, is it my body they want? my face?
a face is just a face, but a heart is infinite
it's all for show
we all want to be loved, right?
some of us more than others 
and some not at all
but being beautiful sucks, you know?
so what, is it my body they want? my face?
a face is just a face, but a heart is infinite
