It's true, I've got demons inside me

And sometimes they need to speak
My dark places make me feel ugly
My lips are glossed but my heart is weak
I'm diseased
As seen on TV
Please forgive me
For not being pretty
Or sexy
But god never blessed me
Here's what you'll find
Next time you undress me

Scars
Wounds
I'm
Bruised

Watch me bleed
I'm your beauty
Watch me bleed
Beauty fiend

Once again
Without perfect teeth
I begin
The dream as I sleep
Soon I've sinned
My skin is still thick
My mouth as always
Is brutally honest
At my calmest
I'm tired of explaining
How it feels
To be exploited
And rated
Number one, two or seventeen
Fuck what they print in those damn magazines

Scars
Wounds
I'm
Used

Watch me bleed
I'm no beauty
Watch me bleed
Beauty queen

Watch me bleed
I'm your beauty
Watch me bleed
Beauty fiend

Stuck inside this mask of mine
There's no place for me to hide
Won't you please come suck me dry
Don't touch me
Don't fucking touch me
Don't touch me... why?
Can't you see beyond my skin
Size, my shape, my ass, my tits
I am not your pretty face
I'm just a girl
The girl you love to hate!

Watch me bleed
I'm no beauty
Watch me bleed
Beauty queen
Watch me bleed
I'm the beauty
Watch me bleed
Beauty fiend

Why can't you see beyond my skin
Size, my shape, my ass, my tits
I am not your pretty face
I'm just a girl
The girl you love to hate!

Stuck inside this mask of mine
There's no place for me to hide
Won't you please come suck me dry
Don't
Don't you fucking touch me pig!

    this song is about me too!

    i hate the way people love 2 judge u purely on how you look. if you're not pretty enough, or thin enough, or curvy enough, or to tall or too short....people think ur not worth talking to. and also, i quite like being hated by most of the small town where i live.

    i hate the way that magazines cough kerrang cough do 'best looking rock females' polls. as if it matters! they make music, they're not there 2 b judged on how they look

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
