Don't you dare tell me I am beautiful
Until you've seen my scars
That carve my body
And the blood that pours out of my soul

Don't you dare tell me I'm lovely
Until I completely shut you out
Because I swore to myself
You're just like the rest
And you'll get sick of me

Don't you dare tell me I'm flawless
Until you've seen me break down in tears
I'll show you the darkness that consumes me
And you'll run away

But if you have seen my scars, bitterness, and darkness then maybe I believe you...
