Am I Not Pretty Enough Lyrics

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken
Do I cry too much
Am I too outspoken
Do I make you laugh
Should I try it harder
Why do you see right through me?

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me
I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break
I crave, I love, I've waited long enough
I try as hard as I can

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken
Do I cry too much
Am I too outspoken
Don't I make you laugh
Should I try it harder
Why do you see right through me?

I laugh, I feel, I make believe it's real
I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees
I hope, I stand, I take it like a man
I try as hard as I can

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken
Do I cry too much
Am I too outspoken
Do I make you laugh
Should I try it harder
Why do you see right through me?
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see right through me?
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see right through me?
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see right through me?
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see right through me?

Why do you see right through me?

Am I not pretty enough 
Is my heart too broken 
Do I cry too much 
Am I too outspoken 
Do I make you laugh 
Should I try it harder 
Why do you see right through me?

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me 
I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break 
I crave, I love, I've waited long enough 
I try as hard as I can

Am I not pretty enough 
Is my heart too broken 
Do I cry too much 
Am I too outspoken 
Don't I make you laugh 
Should I try it harder 
Why do you see right through me?

I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees 
I hope, I stand, I take it like a man 
I try as hard as I can

Is my heart too broken 
Do I cry too much 
Am I too outspoken 
Do I make you laugh 
Should I try it harder

Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see right through me? 
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see...
Why do you see right through me?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
