Mother always told me
they won’t really love you
mother always told me
hide yourself away
She told me that beauty
A tool full of danger
Exploited to be used
I believed her words
I walked this lonely world
Every corner hiding
Who I was inside me
Shrinking away so small
I wanted to believe
Who I am is good
I wanted to believe
I don't need to hide
And then I met you
You came and you broke
through my wall
And then I met you
you came and saw
All that I am
no more hiding
Seen as I am
You say I’m beautiful
(You say I’m beautiful)
Shadows my reflection
Hiding all that I am
Afraid of an allure
Squared fixed in a gaze
Mother’s words in my mind
They won’t really love you
This facade my clothing
Trying to be all
I’ve been down for so long
Grasping pieces of me
Holding back all I am
No answer honest
I wanted to believe
Who I am is good
I wanted to believe
I don't need to hide
And then I met you
You came and you broke
through my wall
And then I met you
you came and saw
All that I am
no more hiding
Seen as I am
You say I’m beautiful
(You say I’m beautiful)
Where would I be?
Who would I be without you?
What would I be?
Who would I be without you?
Never having to hide anymore
You love me as I am
Who would I be?
Who would I be without you?
Mother always told me
they won’t really love you
mother always told me
hide yourself away
These lies I was told true
Have no weight held to you
All the time I have lost
You have given me back
Ten fold and more
And you see right through me
Through all these built up walls
Through all the lies I’m told
still loved through it all
I wanted to believe
Who I am is good
I wanted to believe
I don't need to hide
And then I met you
You came and you broke
through my wall
And then I met you
you came and saw
All that I am
no more hiding
Seen as I am
You say I’m beautiful
(You say I’m beautiful)
Where would I be?
Who would I be without you?
What would I be?
Who would I be without you?
Never having to hide anymore
You love me as I am
Who would I be?
Who would I be without you?
(Without you)
