Ugly


When I was 7 they said that I was strange
I noticed that my eyes and hair weren't the same
I asked my parents if I was okay
They said you're more beautiful and that's the way
They show that they wish that they had your smile
So my confidence was up for a while
I got real comfortable with my own style
I knew that they were only jealous cos...


People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then so are you,
So are you


There was a time when I felt like I cared
That I was shorter than everyone there
People made me feel that life was unfair
And I did things that made me ashamed
Cos I didn't know my body would change
I grew taller than them in more ways
But there will always be the one that will say
Something bad to make them feel great


People are all the same
And we only get judged by what we do
Personality reflects name
And if I'm ugly then so are you,
So are you


I'm in love with this song! Heard it perhaps last week at Tian's place on MTV and enjoyed the music video too. When Baorong first put up the lyrics of this song on her blog, I went to download it and it didn't appeal to me when I first heard the song. Ever since I watched the MTV that day, the song is stuck in my head and I can't stop singing the chorus from yesterday till now. What a beautiful and meaningful song.
