☆ [this one's about blaming the person i luv most for all my problems]

In their eyes, they see perfection

In my mind, I seek rejection

Wonder, 'Am I good enough for redemption?'

Desperate for escape: escape in my reflection

You're my disease: irresistible infection

Do you remember those times?

I was the cause of your erections

I know that you remember:

maybe parts, maybe sections

All I see in you is perfection.

All I wanted was your affection.

I know that you remember, I know that you remember

I know that I'm pretty, but she'll always be prettier

I'm not sick enough, 'I've never been healthier!'

But you wouldn't notice, you couldn't be stupider

There's a good person in me, I've just got to find her

'Everyone feels it!' I've never felt lonelier

I picture you in my mind, with me, of course, not her

I got told I was pretty,

I wish I was prettier.
