Lyrics & Translation

[English]

無理に明るく 笑ってみても

可愛くはなれないよ

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

目立ちたくて 歌ってみても

誰も聞いてくれないし

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

世の中は不平等

生まれた時からスタートラインが違うんだ

何もかも うまくいかなくて

イライラする

ステキなあなたのようにいかないの

自己嫌悪 だから見つめないで

隠れたい

この世を抜け出したい どうかしてるよ

I think I'm ugly

And nobody wants to love me

Just like her, I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty

Don't lie to my face tellin' me I'm pretty

I think I'm ugly

And nobody wants to love me

Just like her, I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty

Don't lie to my face 'cause I know I'm ugly

ねぇ 同情はごめんだよ

ひねくれた心があなたを怨んだりして

そっとして 私じゃ不釣合い

その上から目線な所が嫌に気に障るの

ほっといて 何するかわからない

もうどこかに消えたい

心叫ぶ どうかしてるよ

I think I'm ugly

And nobody wants to love me

Just like her, I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty

Don't lie to my face tellin' me I'm pretty

I think I'm ugly

And nobody wants to love me

Just like her, I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty

Don't lie to my face 'cause I know I'm ugly

All alone, all alone

All alone, I'm all alone

抱きしめてほしい

本当は寂しい

All alone, I'm all alone

I'm always all alone

抱きしめてほしい

でもそんな人 そばにはいない

I think I'm ugly

And nobody wants to love me

Just like her, I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty

Don't lie to my face tellin' me I'm pretty

I think I'm ugly

And nobody wants to love me

Just like her, I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty

Don't lie to my face 'cause I know I'm ugly
