Foggy, confused and blurred
Chin up, you're perfect
You're good
Don't be deterred
Silly girl, you ought to be smarter
Out of focus
You aren't seeing what you want to
Tears are falling
You aren't feeling how you should
But aren't I good? Aren't I nice?
The truth is staring you in your eyes
You're flawed, imperfect
Hardly ever worth it, you don't deserve another friend
Being alone is always easier
But she gave me a look
She saw the real me

Quickly, hide your face
Don't let them see you
Put on your mask
Quickly, quickly, smile through the tears
They must never know, how much it hurts
To be you
Keep it all inside, your own destruction
Insensitive, selfish, untrustworthy
Your delusion of yourself is growing farther
But I'm good, right?
Disgusted by your reflection
Change is such a grueling task
You feel safer
Content behind your mask
Looking in the mirror only seems to get harder

You're delusional, confusing all
The things you've been told
Repeating the same mistakes, fuck
This is getting old
You're not kind, you're not smart
You've hardly got a heart
Youre not brave, you're not wise
Hiding behind those lies
You're not perfect
Darling, stop fooling yourself
This is your demise
