Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never as thin
Never as perfect
Never for him
Never deserving of the boy I love
[Verse 2]
Never the star
Always an asteroid
Delicate heart
Forever the last choice of the one I want
[Verse 3]
So I keep it all in
It's like I'm invisible in my own skin
Give up on that fictional fairy tale end
You're not Cinderella
You're just Penelope Featherington
[Verse 4]
Never as prim
Never as proper
Never a whim
Never an offer from a Bridgerton
And Colin will never see
Behind the yellow that covers me
Just an afterthought
[Verse 5]
So I keep it all in
It's like I'm invisible in my own skin
Give up on the fictional fairy tale end
Forever in yellow
You're just Penelope Featherington
[Verse 6]
He would hold my hand
He'd be more than just a friend
If only someone else would just understand
He'd be like my prince
Steal me with a kiss
But that's not real life
Never dressed in white
[Verse 7]
'Cause I'm never as thin
Never as perfect
Never for him
Never deserving of the boy I love
[Verse 8]
Never the star
Always an asteroid
Delicate heart
Forever the last choice of the one I want
[Verse 9]
So I keep it all in
It's like I'm invisible in my own skin
Give up on the fictional fairy tale end
Forever in yellow
You're just Penelope Featherington
