Story behind the song
"Unpretty" was written after the strong belief that commercial items like beauty magazines and print ads only promote low self-esteem.
Lyrics
I.
Listen to the sad story of a girl
Her way to happiness is bleak
Drowning in self-pity and cursing everything in the world
Her self-confidence is weak
She ends her day tears falling from her eyes
She's kneeling down praying, "God, will you please tell me why
I don't know what to do
Can you see me crying, crying?!"
pre-chorus:
Let me tell you something
This girl's self-image is worrying
As exaggerated as that situation may be
That happens to hurting girls
You don't see, you don't see
No, you don't see!
chorus:
She's torn, she's bathed
In endless misery
She's worn, she's scathed
In search of answers to her query
With all the so-called beautiful girls in the city
No one has the right to make her feel unpretty.
II.
The existence of an emotional scar
These are days without any light
She's looking at herself in the mirror and
Seeing a girl who is ugly and bad looking
Trapped in the darkness
She can't keep her chin up
They say she's an ugly girl
Oh, what is she to the world
World, world?!
bridge:
She can feel it in her
It's still in her skin
It won't go away
Why is it here to stay?
Crawling, creeping
Eating her away
She doesn't know what to do
When this feeling comes so soon
Drowning, beating
Consuming every part of her
Oh, no, her candle's burning out
She just wants to scream and shout
Will her obsession with looks go away
What you are on the outside
Is different from who you are on the inside
For we are each a soul dwelling in a tangible body
(mini piano instrumental)
(adlib: insert chanting here)
With all the so-called beautiful girls in the city
No one has the right to make her feel unpretty
Eee-yeah...
