You say you love my smile
But do you love my fucked up teeth?
You say you love my skin
But do you love what’s underneath?
You say you love my silver linings
But you can’t see these clouds are blinding
You tell me that you love me
And I can’t tell if it’s true
You whisper pretty lies to me
And I mumble, “I love you”
But now you doubt me too
And you tell me you’re too flawed
I tell you that we match
And that I’m loving you because
You say you love my smile
So I don’t worry ‘bout my fucked up teeth
You say you love my skin and I
Know you love what’s underneath
You say you love my silver linings
And suddenly these clouds aren’t blinding
