Beneath The Skin (acoustic)

AmAnother day she sets Cfoot in this prison, Fdreading what they'll Gsay.
AmSo much to give, but no Cone ever listens.
FShe dreams of running Gaway.
AmCrippled by the way they Cmake her feel, she takes a Flook at her wrists & Gturns to the blade.
AmIt's not a cry for atCtention if she just wants to Ffeel anything otGher than the pain.
AmEveryone desCerves to be loved,F but they make her hate Geverything she was sure of!
AmEvery day feels like Cher against the world.
FNow she's afrGaid she'll never be enough.
AmNo one knows all the Cweight that she holds when she Ffeels alone.
The memoGries, they haunt her.
AmNo one sees all the Cpain she brings everyFwhere she goes.
She feels they'll Gnever want her.
AmShe dreams of a Cday when she won't have to Fcry herself to Gsleep.
AmStaring at the Cscars on her wrists she Fknows this is not who she Gwants to be.
AmAnother night all aClone with her thoughts, Fdwelling on the questions that Grace through her head.
AmScared to sleep, scared to Cwake up & face the day when Fshe can't forget the Gthings that they said.
AmNo one knows all the Cweight that she holds when she Ffeels alone.
The memoGries, they haunt her.
AmNo one sees all the Cpain she brings everyFwhere she goes.
She feels they'll Gnever want her.
AmAll she waCnts is someone to Fnotice; so sick of Gfeeling invisible.
AmAll she Cneeds is someone to Fcare.
If only they could Gsee that she's incredible.
AmShe dreams of a Cday when she won't have to Fcry herself to Gsleep.
AmIs our generation too blind to see true beauty lies beneath the skin?
So ignorant! Am
AmAre they too cold, too Cnumb to see the lifelong efFfects of the pain they infGlict?
AmIs our generation Ctoo blind to see true Fbeauty lies beneath the Gskin?
