So you say I’m pretty
So what
Anyone can have a few good features
That’s not the point

I don’t want to be seen
I want to be heard
I want to scream and you scream with me
Don’t just make me eye candy

Hair, lips, skin
Eyes, ears, hands
All humans are beautiful creatures
But I have a voice as well

I don’t want to be seen
I want to be heard
I want to scream and you scream with me
Don’t just make me eye candy

I am a strong person
I can live without beauty
To you I’m a face
But to myself I am an untamed soul
I don’t want to be seen
I want to be heard
I want to scream and you scream with me
Don’t just make me eye candy
