Lyrics
SKIN DEEP
(Amy Westbrook, Robin Scofield, Jonathan Crone)
I'm every girl who wants a cover of a magazine
Maybe Glamour Vogue - Cosmo Girl or Seventeen
But in the end it's what's inside my heart that people see
They know my principals and how I live what I believe
Oh, whoa, oh oh oh
Oh, whoa oh oh oh
I won't pretend that I don't care what you might think of me
But validation isn't something that I want to seek
I'm not the kind of girl to struggle with her self-esteem
Because I know that my distinction comes from underneath
Whoah whoah
Everybody knows it
Whoah whoah
Something always shows (yeah)
Whoah oh oh oh
Everybody knows
No matter what you're told
Beauty goes beyond skin deep
I'm not a blond and I don't care cuz I'm not into bleach
My skin is fair it blisters in the sun and gives me grief
Among the many things my mother handed down to me
Was how to look at life and understand it differently
Whoah whoah
Everybody knows it
Whoah whoah
Something always shows (yeah)
Whoah oh oh oh
Everybody knows
No matter what you're told
Beauty goes beyond skin deep
I try to keep it real
Don't follow any crowd
You gotta ask yourself
Just What you're all about
I'm not the one to judge
Or tell you who you are
But don't you know that looks
They only go so far
Whoah oh oh oh
Everybody knows it
Whoah oh oh oh
Something always shows (yeah)
Everybody knows
No matter what you're told
Beauty goes beyond skin deep
