| When I was a little girl
|
| I wanted to be pretty
|
| I wanted to be popular
|
| I didn’t have a hope in hell
|
| When I was a little girl
|
| My mother told me I
|
| Could be anything I liked
|
| My mother lied
|
| When I was a little girl
|
| I didn’t have hope in hell
|
| When I was a little girl
|
| I didn’t have a hope in hell
|
| Dear five year old me
|
| I wish I could reach back in time
|
| And tell you it’s alright
|
| You’re gonna be just fine
|
| I wish I could help you to see
|
| Twelve year old me
|
| I know there are people
|
| Who are making you feel like you’re not pretty enough
|
| I know one day you will say
|
| «Who gives a fuck?»
|
| I promise you won’t give a
|
| I promise you won’t give a
|
| When I was a little girl
|
| I always felt ashamed
|
| I needed to be pretty
|
| Pretty was the best thing
|
| When I was a little girl
|
| And I didn’t have a hope in hell
|
| When I was a little girl
|
| I didn’t have a hope in hell
|
| Dear nine year old me
|

| And tell you it’s alright
|
| You’re gonna be just fine
|
| I wish I could help you to see
|
| Twelve year old me
|
| I know there are people
|
| Who are making you feel like you’re not pretty enough
|
| I promise you one day you will say
|
| «I'm so sorry little girl»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «I'm so sorry little girl»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «I'm gonna make it up to you»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «If it’s the last thing I do»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «I'm sorry little girl»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «So much to unlearn»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «So much under the surface»
|
| (I'm so sorry, I’m so sorry)
|
| «So much buried there to hurt us»
|
| Dear twelve year old me
|
| I wish I could reach back in time
|
