i cant help you, i dont even want to try.
the sad stories that are shown in your eyes,
they're ones i choose not to buy.
and for being stronger than the rest,
even i cant be the best of the best
i break into pieces and don't pass your test
i'm sorry, i'm really sorry, i can't be anything
other than this girl right here, this girl is me.
you look through the glasses, and you can see
all the things i wish that i could be,
but you don't know me deeper than skin.
i try and you don't see where i'm going,
you speak without even knowing
that the words escaping your lips
are so bitter are harsh, are you even aware
of the tone of voice, how it seems you don't care?
see the girl in the corner,
the one with the headphones on?
that's me, that's how i try to keep it locked in.
and i know you all whisper, "she's so strong
always knows right never does wrong
i think she's the most amazing friend"
i don't want to be your letdown, your excuse to fall
when you eventually find out, i've failed it all
you'll think that i'm standing up far too tall
and i'm sorry, so so sorry, you had to see me like this.
i never meant for you to watch me break apart,
piece by piece, i try to put together my heart
with an audience of the whole cast at my feet,
and i swear these tears aren't real, i don't have feeling
i'm sorry you have to see me when i'm at my worst.
