Lyrics

You have washed my heart whiter than the mountain snow,
Why can't you do the same for my teeth?
When will I ever live what I know,
Or believe that you believe in me?

Ugly duckling, or beautiful swan, or somewhere in between,
I swallowed something that's feeding upon the emptiness inside of me.

Why can't I get this into my head?
They pass right through me, these words You've said.
Why can't I get this into my head that You'll always love me, and You take me
As I am?

You're the only one who can take the load I bear, and free me from the weight of disgrace,
Everyday I wonder, will I ever look like You, until the day I see Your face...

Bed of roses, or rose-colored thorns, or a medley on the garden wall,
I swallowed something that's helping me grow nearly infinitely small.

Not based upon the brightness of my smile
Or by the shape I'm in, but only on the things that are worthwhile.
