On the cover of a magazine
|
|
Standing in line, I was feeling just fine
|
I was having a good day, I thought I was okay
|
The magazine stand that was where it began
|
I started to wonder, what i have to offer
|
|
Could I ever measure up to this
|
Could I ever be good enough
|
This is a game that I could never win
|
|
I can see through those pages
|
It's all just lights and makeup
|
So I'll just be who I am
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
You'll never see any imperfections on the cover of a magazine
|
All the scars are painted over on the cover of a magazine
|
I just want to live a life that's real
|
But that's not what I see staring back at me,
|
on the cover of a magazine
|
|
On the cover of a magazine
|
Sometimes I feel like I'm kind of a mess
|
I start to lose track of what really matters
|
All the pictures running through my head
|
Tell me I'm, nothing if I'm not like them
|
|
They say I'll never measure up to this
|
They say I'll never be good enough
|
I won't listen 'cause I know it isn't true
|
|
I can see through those pages
|
It's all just lights and makeup
|
I won't listen 'cause I know it isn't true
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
'Cause at the end of the day
|
All those magazines get thrown away
|
I wanna be more than paper thin
|
'Cause everything that matters is underneath our skin
|
|
[CHORUS]
