Brilliant Still

For every time you hate yourself For all the ways you gave yourself When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still And the night, it calls again You're a stranger in your skin I wish you'd see yourself the way I do You're my light, I wish you knew So afraid you're not enough Every day, another cut You wouldn't love yourself, you wouldn't dare Why's it hurt so much to care? Now it's Friday, you got your best on But you're still lookin' for a reason to stay home TV on All your courage gone For every time you hate yourself For all the ways you gave yourself When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still For all the teardrops in your hands For every time you wanted to dance When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still Every insecurity Let me chase them out your dreams You keep me steady like some kind of pill I'll do the same for you, I will On a Friday, when all your fire's gone And you're lookin' for a reason to give up Hold on 'Cause you're not the only one For every time you hate yourself For all the ways you gave yourself When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still For all the teardrops in your hands For every time you wanted to dance When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still You are You are You are Yeah, you are For every time you hate yourself For all the ways you gave yourself When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still For all the teardrops in your hands For every time you wanted to dance When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still For every time you hate yourself For all the ways you gave yourself When you can't look in the mirror, heart's ready to spill I just wanna tell you that you're brilliant still --- Brilliant Still - James Bay
