Inside Story
When I see perfect faces in front of me
Magazines full of fabulous beauty queens
How could you think that I'm not obscene?
Look at me, saggy, baggy and five foot three
How could you ever wanna look twice at me?
How could you love the likes of me?

So I'll stay inside these walls and hide myself away
Day after day I'll stare at my TV and hope and pray
That my poor flesh will melt and flow away
How can you even guess what I'm going through?
Look at you, you're so pretty you know it's true
You're so lucky the way you grew

I can't bear to have my face and body seen out there
And you all stare - I want to shrivel up and disappear
To fall into the deep and darkened air
So you see I cannot show my obscenity
Sights like me were never meant to be proud and free
I'm locked away with my destiny
Save your tears - I've lived with this for all my fading years
It's very clear that some of us were never meant to share
Our ugliness with you who walk out there
Now I'll go back to my shadow show
Where I'll grow into the world I know
Go where no mirrors grow
