    “Life is prettier than it may seem” to all those 13 year old girls-young adults that find life a bit too tiring, I hope you won’t give up in finding the beauty of life. Though it may take some time, do know that darkness won’t last forever. Sooner or later, light will shine upon the beautiful things you just weren’t able to see..

    I went to see you on Nov 2 in New York with my just turned 14 year old daughter, who has been struggling with self-esteem and anxiety, and this song really was the best gift to her, to hear that you also had a challenging time and that it will all turn out ok eventually. I'm so glad that even at 14, she's been listening to your songs and finding solace and connection. It's a balm to her young soul. With gratitude and love for the joy and light you share. Thank you from a grateful mom.

    This is the most emotional piece of the album, every single time I hear it I feel so intensely safe and bittersweet in equal measure, and always on the brink of tears. Thank you for gifting your music to us all 🥲

    Laufey, I’m only in high school but am experiencing the most painful things to experience at my age. I always feel like it will get better but it just keeps piling up, and when I listen to your music I feel like you truly understand me. Your voice calms me in every song you sing and I feel like you are speaking directly to me like you know what’s going on with me. I’ve been listening to you since the beginning and always had your songs in my playlists in quarantine and now it feels so amazing that your music is growing so fast. I hope this message gets to you so you can see the effect you have. Thank you 🫶

    [Verse 1]
    Don't you worry 'bout your curly hair
    Clothes that don't quite fit you anywhere
    Voices echo in the gym
    Another girl's had her first kiss
    Please don't think too much of it, darling
    [Verse 2]
    I'm so sorry that they pick you last
    Try to say your foreign name and laugh
    I know that you feel loud, so different from the crowd
    Of big blue eyes, and long blonde hair, and boys that stare
    But, baby, know that
    [Chorus]
    You'll grow up
    And grow so tough and charm them
    Write your story, fall in love a little too
    The things you thought you'd never do
    I wish I could go back and give her a squeeze
    Myself at thirteen
    And just let her know, know that she's beautiful
    [Verse 3]
    Keep on going with your silly dream
    Life is prettier than it may seem
    One day, you'll bе up on stage
    Little girls will scream your namе
    The days of tears and failure fears
    And no one cares
    Will all make sense, 'cause
    [Chorus]
    You'll grow up
    And grow so confident, and
    Write your story, fall in love a little too
    The things you thought you'd never do
    I wish I could go back and give her a squeeze
    Myself at thirteen
    And just let her know, know that she's beautiful
