Lyrics

[Intro]
                        Cm
You should take it as a compliment

[Verse 1]
                               Bb
If I were you, I would be more confident
You're lucky that you're pretty
        F
Why are you obsessed with your appearance?
  Eb
I don't wanna hear it, you're fine
             Cm
It's been my best kept secret for a while now
Bb
No one ever sees it, but it's all around
         F
It's the dinner conversation no one talks about
Don't know how much longer I can keep this down

[Chorus]
Cm                                           Bb
  Beauty is a knife I've been holding by the blade
                                       F
Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything
It's all a lie, honestly,
     Eb
it's eating me alive
            Bb/D
They're all like
Cm
  "Did you change your hair?"
                       Bb
"Did you lose a little weight?"
                                              F
"You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great"
                             Eb
I hate that I always look my best
When I'm dying on the inside

[Interlude]
Cm Bb
     When I'm dying on the inside
F Eb       Bb/D      Cm
    I wish I   could break the mirror

[Verse 2]
                                         Bb
That makes me feel like I should fucking disappear
                                 F
And drown my demons in a bathtub filled with tears
No matter what I try,
     Eb
they always seem to come back to life
Cm
What if I didn't do this to my body?
Bb
What if I quit and then you don't want me?
    F
The dinner conversation no one talks about
Don't know how much longer I can keep this down

[Chorus]
Cm                                           Bb
  Beauty is a knife I've been holding by the blade
                                       F
Swallowing my pride so I won't eat anything
It's all a lie, honestly,
     Eb
it's eating me alive
            Bb/D

"You should keep it up 'cause it really looks great"
                             Eb
I hate that I always look my best
When I'm dying on the inside

[Interlude]
Cm Bb
     When I'm dying on the inside
F Eb
    When I'm dying on the inside
                Bb/D     Cm
You should take it  as a compliment

[Bridge]
                               Bb
If I were you, I would be more confident
You're lucky that you're pretty
        F
Why are you obsessed with your appearance?
  C5
I don't wanna hear it, you're fine
