  • I won't wear makeup on Thursday
    I'm sick of covering up
    I'm tired of feeling so broken
    I'm tired of falling in love
    Sometimes I'm shy and I'm anxious
    Sometimes I'm down on my knees
    Sometimes I try to embrace all my insecurities
    So I won't wear makeup on Thursday
    'Cause who I am is enough

    And there are many things that I could change so slightly
    But why would I succumb to something so unlike me?
    I was always taught to just be myself
    Don't change for anyone

    I wanna laugh, I don't wanna cry
    Don't want these tears inside my eyes, yeah
    Don't wanna wake up and feel insecure
    I wanna sing, I wanna dance
    I wanna feel love inside my hands again
    I just wanna feel beautiful

    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful

    I'll wear my sweatpants on Thursday
    And I'll drink sloe gin from a can
    I'll build my own independence
    I don't always need a man
    You know sometimes I feel lonely
    Could do with the company
    Oh, I get high when I'm down
    But you know that's alright with me
    So I will do nothing on Thursday
    Sit alone and be

    And there are many things that I could change so slightly
    But why would I succumb to something so unlike me?
    I was always taught to just be myself
    Don't change for anyone

    I wanna laugh, I don't wanna cry
    Don't want these tears inside my eyes, yeah
    Don't wanna wake up and feel insecure
    I wanna sing, I wanna dance
    I wanna feel love inside my hands again
    I just wanna feel beautiful

    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful

    I won't wear makeup on Thursday
    'Cause who I am is enough

    I wanna laugh, I don't wanna cry
    Don't want these tears inside my eyes, yeah
    Don't wanna wake up and feel insecure
    I wanna sing, I wanna dance
    I wanna feel love inside my hands again
    I just wanna feel beautiful

    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, oh I
    Oh-oh-oh, I just wanna feel beautiful Writer/s: Edward Christopher Sheeran, Jessica Hannah Glynne, Steve Mac
