Not A Pretty Girl

I am not an angry girl
but it seems like I've got everyone fooled
every time I say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger
and never to their own fear
and imagine you're a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you
were dirty and smiling

I am not a pretty girl
I don't want to be a pretty girl
no I want to be more than a pretty girl
