She says she ain't perfect

she ain't worth it

she tries to hide behind her curtain

afraid of what everybody else will think

 

She doesn't do it

because she wants to

more like she feels she has to

feel the pain and know she's alive

 

She just needs 

to hear someone say

 

You are perfect 

You are worth it

You in every way deserve it

You are loved 

Your kindness is enough

No need to hide behind that curtain

You are loved

 

Just ask anyone

of your friends

don't be scared to let them in

 

You are perfect 

You are worth it

You in every way deserve it

You are loved
Your kindness is enough
No need to hide behind that curtain
Becaue you are loved
