Beauty and the Freak Lyrics[Intro]
I'm letting go
[Verse 1]
One thing is for certain:
I'm treading paths I've walked before
I've reconsidered
And I'm contemplating letting go
I watched resentment steal
Into your face like a thief (a thief)
And the more you pull
The more I push you away from me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm letting go; I'm trying
[Chorus]
"You're beautiful," she said to me
Then why do I feel so ugly?
The freak inside (freak inside)
I still believe (still believe)
It must go more, more than skin-deep
Deep, deep, deep...
[Verse 2]
Domination, segregation, infiltration
This life is mine, and I'll be dead before you take it
I try to fly, but an invisible blade cuts me
I hear that sound just before I hit the ground
[Chorus]
"You're beautiful," she said to me
Then why do I feel so ugly?
The freak inside (freak inside)
I still believe (still believe)
It must go more, more than skin-deep
"You're beautiful," she said to me
Then why do I feel so ugly?
[Bridge]
I know it's hard; I admit I'm scared
This is just how it has to be (has to be)
The hurt will fade; your heart remade
Eventually, we'll regret these days
You're no stranger, but you're strange to me (these days)
Now, when loneliness won't leave you alone (these days)
[Refrain]
"You're beautiful," she said to me
Then why do I feel so ugly?
[Chorus]
"You're beautiful," she said to me
Then why do I feel so ugly?
The freak inside (freak inside)
I still believe (still believe)
It must go more, more than skin-deep
[Outro]
My dead sense can't tell right from wrong (Skin-deep)
That's why my words only inflicted pain on you (Skin-deep)
I've picked the lock of a door
I never wanted to go through (Skin-deep)
I'm turning back
I'm letting go
