[Verse 1]
Most of the picture I take
End up in the trash
My shirt says "I woke up like this"
You know better than that
'Cause when I wake up with no makeup
I ain't gonna lie, it's a sad sight
That's why most of the picture I take
End up in the trash
[Chorus]
You just see the highlights
Framed up, filtered, photos shot on my good side
But if you knew me behind the scenes
I'd look a lot like you
I'm messed up too
But you just see the highlights
[Verse 2]
Life's a party, love's a perfect fairytale
There ain't no documentin' when I go through hell
It's just pretty is as pretty does
And you know that's all because
[Chorus]
You just see the highlights
Framed up, filtered, photos shot on my good side
But if you knew me behind the scenes
I'd look a lot like you
I'm messed up too
But you just see the highlights
[Bridge]
It's a full-time job
But it's our way of life
So even when my hair starts turnin' white
[Chorus]
You'll just see the highlights
Framed up, filtered, photos shot on my good side
But if you knew me behind the scenes
I'd look a lot like you
I'm messed up too
Yeah, I'm just like you
I'm messed up too
But you just see the highlights
Oh, you see the highlights
