I'm sorry
But I'm just a girl
Not usually the kind to show my heart to the world
I'm pretty good
At keeping it together
I hold my composure
For worse or for better
So I apologize, if you don't like what you see
Sometimes my emotions get the best of me
And falling apart is as human as it gets
You can't hide it, you can't fight but the truth is
You can't pretty lie
And say it's ok you can't pretty smile and just walk away
Pretty much make your way through anything
But you can't cry pretty
Oh no you can't dress it up
In lace or rhinestones
It don't matter if you're in a crowd
Or home all alone
Yeah it's all the same
When you're looking the mirror
A pinch or a pain, so let it flow like a river
You can't pretty lie
And say it's ok you can't pretty smile and just walk away
Pretty much make your way through anything
But you can't cry pretty
You can't turn off the flood
When the dam breaks
And all your mascara is going away
When things get ugly
You just gotta face that you can't cry pretty
No you can't
Oooooh
(guitar)
You can't turn off the flood
When the dam breaks
And all your mascara is going away
When things get ugly
You just gotta face that you can't cry pretty
Yeah
No you can't cry
No you can't cry
Yeah
Yeah
You can't cry
You can't cry pretty, baby
No you can't cry
Pretty
