They Say

They say I am beautiful
Do they think that makes me whole?
They say I am hot
Do they think that fills my lonely spot?
They say I am sweet
Do they think I am going to be their treat?
They say I am pretty
Do they think that’s the way to get me?
They say I am adorable?
Do they think I am some kind of fool?
They say I am sexy
Do they think that sets the pain free?
They say they want me in bed
I say, “that will only be a dream in your head”
Every compliment I’ve heard
But no matter what, no stupid word
Can stop the tears at night
And make me feel loved and life alright
