The song encourages believing in oneself and accepting that everyone is perfect in their own unique way. It discusses how the singer was losing herself by trying to compete with others instead of accepting who she is. She wants to change her ways, stop being afraid, and wake up feeling confident by believing in herself. The mirror can sometimes lie and not show one's inner self, but by putting on a smile, one can hide what they feel inside.

1. BELIEVE IN ME
By: Demi Lovato

2. I'm losing myself
Trying to compete
With everyone else
Instead of just being me
I don't know where to turn
I've been stuck in this
routine
I need to change my ways
Instead of always being
weak

3. I don't want to be afraid
I wanna wake up feeling
beautiful today
And know that I'm ok
Cause everyone's perfect
in unusual ways you see
I just wanna believe in me
La la la la, la la la

4. The mirror can lie
Doesn't show you what's
inside
And it, it can tell you
you're full of life
It's amazing what you can
hide
Just by putting on a smile

5. I don't want to be afraid
I wanna wake up feeling
beautiful today
And know that I'm ok
Cause everyone's perfect
in unusual ways you see
I just wanna believe in me

6. I'm quickly finding out
I'm not about to break down
Not today

7. I guess I always knew
That I had all the strength
To make it through

8. Not gonna be afraid
I'm gonna wake up feeling
beautiful today
And know that I'm ok
Cause everyone's perfect
in unusual ways you see
Now, now I believe in me

9. Now I believe in me
