The Rear Admirals - Ugly on the Inside Lyrics

Cast a look in my direction, then keep on walking by
I don't blame you
Ugly on the inside

Just a glance at the cover will tell what the pages hide
Sound judgement
I'm ugly on the inside

Beneath the wretched surface
Lies a heart that's beating so imperfectly
Terrible truth
I'm ugly on the inside too

Everyone saw straight through me but you can't, could you be so blind?
Here's hoping
Ugly on the inside

And I just don't trust myself--well I know just what I'm like
I don't like it
Ugly on the inside

Beneath the wretched surface
Lies a heart that's beating so imperfectly
Terrible truth
I'm ugly on the inside too

This drink inside me burns like a man destroying evidence
Its the only thing I can feel anymore
Last night I spent all my money trying to get so drunk I'd think somebody loved me
And I just wound up at your door

But loving me would be suicidal, and you're much too young to die
I don't blame you
Ugly on the inside

So cast a look in my direction and close the door on the Autumn night
I don't blame you
Ugly on the inside

Beneath the wretched surface
Lies a heart that's beating so imperfectly
Terrible truth
I'm ugly on the inside too
