Self pity nothing pretty
You always look down at yourself
Thinking that there's nothing to make you feel so great on the inside and out

Self pity nothing pretty
With endless regret you take one glance and start reconstructing who you think you ought to look like
Just to make the staring worth while

Self pity nothing pretty
Is what you preach to yourself
Every Mornin, Noon and Night.
Turning your heart from glee to hate
Disguising that beautiful trait
Just because you feel all sorts of strange.

Self pity nothing pretty
Is what I beg you forget
Because you were made with the most precious time,
by the One who called you great.

Forget about the hate that lays within you
Or the frustration of the thoughts that clutter your mind...

But better yet love you
for everything that makes you, you
And as for the world,
it shall be strong.
Just make sure you're not one that falls for its "self pity nothing pretty" endlessness.
