Just The Way You Are
Pierce the Veil Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her tryin'
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Yeah
And it's so, it's so sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay?"
I say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah
Her lips, her lips, I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh, she hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
Oh, you know, you know, you know I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for, then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are (c'mon, c'mon, c'mon)
The way you are
The way you are
Girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are
Yeah
The song "Just The Way You Are" by Pierce the Veil is a cover of the original song by Bruno Mars. The lyrics of this song are a heartfelt tribute to a person the singer loves, and a message to that person that they do not need to change anything about themselves to be worthy of love and appreciation. The song begins with the singer admiring the person's eyes and hair, and telling her that she is beautiful, and that he tells her this every day. However, he realizes that even though he compliments her, she may not believe him, and continues to have self-doubt. But the singer reassures her that there is nothing about her that he would change and that she is amazing just the way she is. He recognizes her quirks as what makes her unique and loves her even more for it. The song ends with the singer repeating that the person is amazing just the way they are, and that the whole world stops and stares when she smiles.
The song's message resonates with many people and has become an anthem for self-love and acceptance. The lyrics are relatable and empowering, reminding everyone that they are perfect just the way they are. Interestingly, Pierce the Veil's cover of this song adds a new dimension to it, with their unique blend of rock and post-hardcore sound, giving the song even more emotion and power.
