She says I'm beautiful
Flawless
But I would scrape off my perfect face
To see the truth of her

The truth that she gives her ugly man
That she does ugly things with
When she thinks my pretty eyes
Are distracted by her gorgeous lies

I miss when it was just us
I wonder if it ever was
How many ugly men does it take
To fill in the ever-empty space

I'm sorry I can't be everything
I'm sorry I'm no good at ugly
I wish I meant more to you
I wish that beauty earned your truth

And your ugly things
Known to me all the while
Will be punished justly
With a pretty smile
