Plastic Beach

Spent a lifetime in the mirror

Always afraid of what someone else would say

I wanted to be strong so I took some time to tell you

But you knew from the things I said

Why do you say that, babe?

You're my beautiful

You're my heart

And you're beautiful just this way

When I took the time to tell you

You took the time to listen to me too

Now I see, I see today

I see, I see my face

Spent a lifetime in the mirror

Picking apart what I couldn't change

And I saw my mother, my father, my brother

In my face

In my face

Most the times it was the only thing that kept me going

Other times, just the grip of shame

Oh, you came along and showed me who I am

Wanted means

To be loved

To be one

To be loved

To feel some

I see, I see tomorrow

I see, I see tomorrow

And you're my beautiful

And you're beautiful just this way

When I took the time to tell you

You took the time to listen to me too

Now I see, I see tomorrow

I see, I see tomorrow

I spent a lifetime in the mirror

Picking apart what I couldn't change

I see, I see tomorrow

I see, I see tomorrow

I see, I see tomorrow

I see, I see tomorrow

What you saw today
