Lola - 21 Lyrics

Lyrics 21 - Lola



They tell her from a young age
That beauty is looks and she believes them and tries her very best
Her innocence they take
And she starts to wear makeup and wear clothes she thinks they′ll like
But nobody told her she had a pretty great person inside
No one said, "You're capable and loving"
"You′re kind and you're smart"
"You got passion in your eyes and beauty in your smile"
"And you are a work of art"
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
That their story is wrong and it's not worth the tears
I am worth something
And I′m done acting
And how many times that I never loved
The person in the mirror, but that′s who I was
I am so much more
And I finally surrendered the war
She finally gets to high school
She doesn't look like they do
She′s not outgoing
She writes these songs alone in her room
And she finally gets to college
And thinks boys will be so different there
But she's disappointed by the way that they talk and they stare
Pretty soon she hardly eats at all
She′s sick every day
Puking in the bathroom stall
And she wants to get better
'Cause she knows she′s not who she sees in the mirror
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
That their story is wrong and it's not worth the tears
I'm worth something
And I′m done acting
And how many times that I never loved
The person in the mirror, but that′s who I was
I am so much more
And I finally surrendered the war
It all got too heavy
And I wasn't healthy
I was weak to the bones
′Til I couldn't do this no more
And I thought about love
I gave to everyone else
And I′m still trying to convince myself
I deserve love as well
It took me 21 years to see it this clear
That their story is wrong and it's not worth the tears
I am worth something
And I′m done acting
And how many times did I never loved
The person in the mirror, but that's who I was
I am so much more
And I finally surrendered the war
