it's another quiet night, you're by yourself
that's how you prefer it, no one giving you hell
just a little peace and quiet to help clear your head
can't wait to jump into your freshly made bed
you wear a smile to hide all the pain
was it something that they said to you earlier today?
you wash away all your pride
cause you promised yourself you'd stay alive
you know you're one step ahead
but honey, it's better than being dead
you gotta tell yourself you're worth it
cause honey this is it
don't try and cover all your scars
they make you who you are
you're a gorgeous being
so it's time to start gleaming
you will wake up one day loving what you see
come on baby please just listen to me
you will walk down that aisle some day
the rest of your life can begin that way
you will hold it all down
and make more than your family proud
you gotta tell yourself you're worth it
cause honey this is it
don't try and cover all your scars
they make you who you are
you're a gorgeous being
so it's time to start gleaming
