Beautiful Enough

Tell her she's beautiful again
Just so you can see her smile
But inside she will be in denial
She tears at herself for not being perfect
She's not good enough for you
She was never beautiful enough for you

Like a wilted rose
She tries so hard to reach the sun
She reaches, Oh, she reaches
But she finds nothing to grasp
Because no one wants to lift her to the sky
So she rots away
And prays for another day

Another day to see you
Another day to bow to you

You tell her she is so beautiful
Only when she wears her disguise
Oh, can't you see behind that painted mask?
She did this all, for you
All for you
But when she takes it off she grieves for you to say
"Honey, you're beautiful"
Even when the mask has gone
And dark has returned
To consume, the stars again tonight
Today she'll fade away

Like the stars we see in Heaven's sky
She shine's the brightest
But you never wish upon her
You don't see her fall
And you don't see, her fade
She will never be beautiful
She was never beautiful enough for you
