Michelle Branch
Stand Still, Look Pretty
[Verse 1]
I wanna paint my face and pretend that I am someone else
Sometimes I get so fed up I don't even wanna look at myself
[Pre-Chorus]
But people have problems that are worse than mine
I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
And I hate the way you look at me, I have to say
I wish I could start over
[Chorus]
I am slowly falling apart
I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start
And you might think it's easy being me
You just stand still, look pretty
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I find myself shaking in the middle of the night
And then it hits me, and I can't even believe this is my life
[Pre-Chorus]
But people have problems that are worse than mine
I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
And I wish that everyone would just go and shut their mouths
I'm not strong enough to deal with it
[Chorus]
I am slowly falling apart
I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start
You might think it's easy being me
You just stand still, look pretty
I am slowly falling apart
I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start
You might think it's easy being me
You just stand still, look pretty
