Look So Pretty Lyrics
Say what you will
I will walk past that plate
Of glass
Your time has passed.
Dont ever say its my time
Burning hatred will light my way.
A choice not an echo.
And as your world comes down
I will be there.
[Chorus] You look so pretty
Digging your grave
You look so pretty whats
Left to save?
Say what you will
Eyes to the skies.
You look so pretty right now.
I will walk past that plate
Of glass
Your time has passed.
Burning hatred will light my way.
I will be there.
Digging your grave
You look so pretty whats
Left to save?
Eyes to the skies.

I also think it's about somebody who's hurt her, but instead of whining about it she mocks him and just makes him feel like shit for doing it to her:
"Say what you will I will walk past that plate of glass Your time has passed" She doesn't care what he says anymore cos his time is up, he's the one who fucked up and she don't about his thoughts anymore
"Don't ever say it's my time Burning hatred will light my way" She's saying 'don't say I screwed up, and that I'm the one who should be in your shoes' and letting him know that her hate for him is making her do this
"A choice not an echo" She is choosing to do this, because SHE wants to, not cos she's hearin other people say she should (thus being the echo)
"And as your world comes down, I will be there" She'll be there to see his world collapse, cos she caused it
"You look so pretty, digging your grave You look so pretty what's left to save?" She's mocking him now, and saying 'why bother try and crawl back up cos you have nothing left'
"Say what you will, eyes to the skies You look so pretty right now" He can say whatever, cos she'll ignore him either way.
I think "you look so pretty digging your grave" means that she's being sort of sarcastic, mocking him and saying that he looks good while he's pretty much ruining his life.

actually I thought about it.
'you look so pretty while digging your grave', means you're fucking up your life while making it look like you're not.
maybe he wears a smile everyday.

i think it's about watching someone ruin there life or "digging your grave" "a choice not an echoe" as in you don't have to make the same desision's over and over which causes you to dig your own grave. If this is true then she is kinda moking him.
I totally agree with sunshine_arakhan. It seems like she's mocking someone...someone who's tried to hold her down or push her around. Like she knows what's going to happen to them in life. That's what it always made me think of.
Maybe this song is about regret.
or someone really pissed her off.... "burning hatred will light my way", "as your world comes down I will be there"--watching his pain or maybe causing it, "you look so pretty digging your grave"--mocking him
