I can't seem to grasp the words.
I hold these heavy thoughts in my head
But I can't translate them for you.
They continue to break me into pieces.
I don't think I am the person I show you
She's the person I want to be
I can only put on the makeup
And try to keep up the performance.
My mask is cracked
You've seen too much
I push you away until I am alone
Where no one can criticise me.
There's so much I want to tell you
I promise I'm smart.
I think you're better than me
I hate to bear the weight of a heavy heart.
