Your Ugly by Tavisha Lyrics

For all the "you’re ugly"s,
trying to cut you down at your knees
And for all the mockery that burns your throat and shades your skin...
For all their words which circle you;
swallowing you in.

You don't know how many have fallen for you.
Have fallen for your smile; how it resonates in your eyes,
Have loved you for the kindness you share with the world engulfing you.
You don't realize how many people feel the happiness you exude;
They find a peace when they're around you.
You don't see the others who see you.
That beauty within is not a beauty without.
Your beauty within is not beauty without.
You don't understand how they see your sorrow too;
They see it seep and leave you hollow.
All they want to do is help you heal; help you feel the love they feel.
You don't understand how much they love you.
Please, don't wait to love yourself too.

For even if they throw their worst at you and
Trap you in a tornado of despair that lingers inside,
You will .always. rise up and watch their storms subside.
You are Lightning in a world that knows no light,
You are Thunder in a world deafened; in plight.

Into wrong locks I forced this key
I molded myself to their views of me
But I tell you so you don't collapse within, you see

All the looks and glares
stand as a mask of hypocrisy stripped bare.
All the hurt they throw at you
represents their core's truth, not you.

lightning.
In a world that knows no light
thunder.
