The Rose Song

All my life, I’ve seen myself through your eyes
Wonderin' if I am good enough for your time
You love me but for all the wrong reasons
Am I somethin' to you and not someone?
'Cause I feel trapped on this pedestal you put me on
You tell me that I’m beautiful but I think that’s an understatement
'Cause I am more than what I am to you
You say I’m perfect but I’ve got thorns with my petals, too
And I won’t be confined to your point of view
I’m breakin' through the glass you put me in
'Cause my beauty’s from within, oh
My beauty’s from within, oh
So, I am done livin' my life just for you
You watched me wither and now you watch me bloom
You’re hidin' in the dark but I’m reachin' for the sun, woo-ooh
'Cause I am more than what I am to you
You say I’m pretty but I’ve got magic that you never knew
And I won’t be confined to your point of view
I’m breakin' through the glass you put me in
'Cause I am more than what I am to you
You say I’m perfect but I’ve got thorns with my petals, too
And I won’t be confined to your point of view
I’m breakin' through the glass you put me in
'Cause my beauty’s from within
