Ms. THird ward, your first vraag - what is your aspiration in life? Oh... My aspiration in life... would be... to be happy.

Mama said, "You're a pretty girl.
What's in your head, it doesn't matter
Brush your hair, fix your teeth.
What u wear is all that matters."
just another stage, pageant the pain away
This time I'm gonna take the crown
Without falling down, down, down
Pretty hurts, we shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation, pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts, we shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something but u can't fix what u can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery
Blonder hair, flat chest
TV says, "Bigger is better."
South beach, sugar free
Vogue says, "Thinner is better."
Just another stage, pageant the pain away
This time I'm gonna take the crown
Without falling down, down, down
Pretty hurts, we shine the light on whatever's worst
Perfection is a disease of a nation, pretty hurts, pretty hurts (pretty hurts)
Pretty hurts (pretty hurts), we shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something but u can't fix what u can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery
Ain't got no doctor of pill that can take the pain away
The pain's inside and nobody frees u from your body
It's the soul, it's the soul that needs surgery
It's my soul that needs surgery
Plastic smiles and denial can only take u so far
Then u break when the fake facade leaves u in the dark
u left with shattered mirrors and the shards of a beautiful past
Pretty hurts, we shine the light on whatever's worst (pretty hurts)
Perfection is a disease of a nation, pretty hurts, pretty hurts
Pretty hurts, we shine the light on whatever's worst
We try to fix something but u can't fix what u can't see
It's the soul that needs the surgery
When you're alone all door yourself (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
And you're lying in your bed (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Reflection stares right into u (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are u happy with yourself? (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
u stripped away the masquerade (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
The illusion has been shed (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are u happy with yourself? (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Are u happy with yourself? (pretty hurts, pretty hurts)
Yes
Uh huh huh
(Uh huh huh)
(Uh huh huh)
