Genre: Probably mellow, dark pop or an angry pop punk song would slay for the sound but I'm literally never ever recording this in the future or ever singing it, so imagine it to sound any way you want.
A/N: All I will say is that this song is about mommy issues... I wrote this shit when I was 14, I was so devastated and disappointed back then. I'm used to it now though and don't cry about it anymore. I'm stronger now and don't really care anymore. The bridge aged very well, wow. Please don't pity me or anything, it's better off this way. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger 💅
INTRO/CHORUS:
it's made up, i made it all up
your impeccable traits
turns out they're all flaws
so don't ask me what's wrong
cause i've had enough
1ST VERSE:
don't think that there's really an us anymore
like a fragile sheet of paper, you tore us up
it's on you all along
you have the nerve to ask what's the fuss
i'm not happy, can't you tell?
so don't expect me to lighten up and smile
just because you want me to
PRE-CHORUS:
at the moment shit ain't well
can't block the noise of your yells
loud like a running wishing well
nothing's ever good enough for you
CHORUS:
it's made up, i made it all up
the good times, turns out they're all lies
reminiscing on days built on my demise
cause it's not right
it's made up, i made it all up
your impeccable traits
turns out they're all flaws
so don't ask me what's wrong
cause i've had enough
2ND VERSE:
quit messing with my head
i really wish you'd leave me alone instead
feeling helpless, tears on my bed
unstable emotions rushing all over
and you're doing your best
while me? i'm wishing it was the end
all at my own expense
how i wish i had the power to getaway
you're too blind to see my value
PRE-CHORUS:
and how fed up i am assisting with your issues
you never have to witness the droplets of tears pouncing onto a tissue
i cry, almost all the time
and it's all because of you
CHORUS:
it's made up, i made it all up
the good times, turns out they're all lies
reminiscing on days built on my demise
cause it's not right
it's made up, i made it all up
your impeccable traits
turns out they're all flaws
so don't ask me what's wrong
cause i've had enough
BRIDGE:
go on, take it all on me, pick a fight
maybe four years from now i'll find someone nice
someone who'll really care
and be there when i'm feeling down
they'll be the support of a whole sympathetic crowd
i won't have to cry anymore
they'll tolerate my presence, and make me smile
all this bullshit will be worth the while
OUTRO:
it'll no longer be made up
it'll be real, all real
not a fraud, but the real deal
I won't have to bottle up and seal what i feel
cause i'll find love that's real
love that's the real deal
