i'm very uneasy about publishing this song, as it feels wrong and weird to do so. this song may suggest otherwise, but i'm actually fine. i'm holding up okay and trying not to look back. i'll make it. this is just me letting go of all that i bottled up for months :)

i'm aware this song has a darker meaning than anything i've posted before and it's not a lifestyle i'd like to promote. you're beautiful/gorgeous the way you are <3

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, YOU'RE EVERYTHING TO ME!

1ST VERSE:

beauty is pain

as we've been told

but do you truly know?

are you aware what it's like?

that content deprived kind of life?

tell me, have you ever felt it?

tell me, have you ever given into society's bullshit?

do you think the person behind you did?


PRE-CHORUS:

answer me, would you like to?

beauty is pain

do you think it's worth it?

are willing to sacrifice every second

just to be drop dead gorgeous


CHORUS:

yes, i have to know

exactly how far you're willing to go

all the limits and hypocrisy provoked

it's all just for the show

go and take a seat across the front row

i'll write your lines and script

from now on, i'm in control

you'll be a big name in my play

afterall, beauty is pain


2ND VERSE:

faint and fall

follow the trail of tears

all the way to the bathroom stall

no no, i'm not here

or am i really?

until all cognitive thinking has disappeared

is it real? is it real?

it's just another day, another life

when will it be time?

haven't i crusaded miles?


PRE-CHORUS:

do you really want to wake every morning

to only break all your own amendments?

who cares about dignity

beauty is pain

and isn't beauty everything?


CHORUS:

yes, i have to know

exactly how far you're willing to go

all the limits and hypocrisy provoked

it's all just for the show

go and take a seat across the front row

i'll write your lines and script

from now on, i'm in control

you'll be a big name in my play

afterall, beauty is pain


BRIDGE:

you're losing, you're lost

it's all becoming loosening

maybe you're hallucinating

you're running, you've stopped

all this time, was i really rooting?

you're losing, you're lost

it's all becoming loosening

are you so sure you're only dreaming

darling, you asked for this

or did you not wish to achieve the pageant dream?

beauty is pain


BREAKDOWN:

beauty is pain

but it's not what you thought it out to be

it was never that easy

was it ever really?

everyone is everything you'll never be

and you're never enough, are you?


PRE-CHORUS:

beauty is pain

but the pain feels numb

you need to hurt more

or then the beauty isn't there

is there any other way

that beauty isn't pain?

but isn't beauty everything?


CHORUS:

yes, i have to know

exactly how far you're willing to go

all the limits and hypocrisy provoked

it's all just for the show

go and take a seat across the front row

i'll write your lines and script

from now on, i'm in control

you'll be a big name in my play

afterall, beauty is pain
