I wrote this when Pretty Hurts first came out. I am posting it today because I’m feeling lazy and don’t want to write another article. Regardless, this is still very pertinent because gay culture is very fixated on looks. Pretty may hurt (SOMETIMES) but ugly alters lives. So much so that it leads many guys to fake being straight because they know that gays are beauty OBSESSED.
This writing goes along with Beyoncé’s song ‘Pretty Hurts’. Play her music and sing my words to it…
No one says, you’re a pretty girl (thing).
What do they see, that’s all that matters
What you wear, sexy things
You’re not hot so it doesn’t matter.
Just another day, no one will look your way
Wish some one would just like me now
But I’m still in vis able now
Ugly hurts, we shun the ones who nobody wants
Perfection is the desire of the world, ugly hurts, ugly hurts
Ugly hurts, we shun the ones who nobody wants
We cry to make something but you can’t fix the face they’re seeing
I can not change what you see of me
Pretty face, nice abs
Survey says, Pretty is better.
Self esteem sinking
World says, thinner is better.
Just another day, no one will look my way
Wish some one would just like me now
But I’m still in- vis- able now
Ugly hurts, we shun the ones who nobody wants
Perfection is the desire of the world, ugly hurts, average hurts
Ugly hurts, we shun the ones who nobody wants
We cry to make something but you can’t fix the face they’re seeing
I can not change what you see of me
Never no body to chill with feeling that special way
I feel the pain and hurt because nobody wants body
I can’t change, I can’t change what you see of me
I can’t change what you see of me
Starvation and weight lifting will only get you so far
Keep it real you know nobody wants you any how
You’re tired of faking happy, life is short so then keep it real please
Ugly hurts, we shun the ones who nobody wants
Perfection is the desire of the world, ugly hurts, average hurts
Ugly hurts, we shun the ones who nobody wants
We cry to make something but you can’t fix the face they’re seeing
I can not change what you see of me
I should not change what God has made, average hurts ugly hurts
Love your self if no one else, average hurts ugly hurts
You’ve got to accept how you are, average hurts ugly hurts
And be satisfied with self, average hurts ugly hurts
You just have to work thru the pain, average hurts ugly hurts
You’re okay all by your self, average hurts ugly hurts
You’re okay all by your self, ugly hurts ugly hurts
You’re okay all by your self, ugly hurts ugly hurts
