People tell me
I'm pretty
But I look in the mirror
And I'm so ugly
And the mirror tells the truth
Cause
Essentially
It's me.

She explained all this
In the girls' bathroom
In such a nonchalant way
That I envied her.

I look in the mirror
And I can't say it lies
But the truth?
I can't see the truth.

People tell me
I'm pretty
But I look in the mirror
And I'm confused
Because I've always believed
In people
More than I believe
In myself.
