I wake up and I check my phone Another perfect life I don’t own Perfect faces, perfect skin Everybody looks like they always win We compare ourselves to what we see And forget who we’re supposed to be Every picture tells a different lie And we spend our lives asking why [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we’re chasing something That was never real Trying to fix the things We were never meant to feel [Chorus] You were good enough before they told you You were beautiful before you knew You don’t need to look like somebody else To be somebody worth loving too Put the phone down, look around you There’s a whole world waiting outside Maybe I was born in the wrong time I just wanna go back to a simpler life [Post-Chorus / Drop] Oh-oh-oh We were never meant to be perfect Oh-oh-oh Maybe we’re already worth it Oh-oh-oh Put your heart back in your hands We don’t need to understand [Verse 2] Late at night we’re losing sleep Looking at a life we’ll never keep Things we see on every screen Make us hate the person in between And we chase a body we can’t have A love that doesn’t really last We forget that nobody knows What happens when the camera goes [Pre-Chorus] Maybe we’re chasing something That was never real Trying to fix the things We were never meant to feel [Chorus] You were good enough before they told you You were beautiful before you knew You don’t need to look like somebody else To be somebody worth loving too Put the phone down, look around you There’s a whole world waiting outside Maybe I was born in the wrong time I just wanna go back to a simpler life [Bridge – emotional] I miss the days before the screens Before we knew what perfect means When we would talk until the night And nobody had to prove their life Maybe the good old days aren’t gone Maybe we can bring them back somehow Turn off the noise, come back to life And finally be ourselves tonight [Final Chorus – huge] You were good enough before they told you You were beautiful before you knew All the things you tried to hide away Are the things that make you truly you Put the phone down, look around you Feel the world beneath your feet Maybe we don’t need another lifetime Maybe this one’s all we need [Outro] Oh-oh-oh We were never meant to be perfect Oh-oh-oh You were always more than worth it Oh-oh-oh If I could go back in time I’d tell myself: “You’re gonna be alright.”
