Their words are daggers, piercing my soul
"She's better than you," a constant goal
I'm never enough, always in the shade
A comparison that makes me feel inadequate, a life unlived
My voice is silenced, my words unspoken
Lost in the darkness, my heart is broken
I try to fit in, but I'm never the same
A reflection of their disappointment, a life in flames
"She's perfect," they say, with a tone so cold
But I'm a failure, a story untold
I'm not good enough, I'm not smart enough
Just a shadow of her, a fading light, a dying spark
I'm lost in the darkness, searching for a way
Trying to escape the pain, but it's here to stay
I'm tired of trying, tired of the shame
Tired of being compared, tired of the endless game
But she, the one I'm compared to, she sees
The pain in my eyes, the heart that bleeds
She knows everyone is different, unique in their own way
And she wishes they would stop, day by day
But still they compare, still they shame
Still I'm trapped in this cycle, forever in the flame
Wishing to be me, but never enough
A heartbreaking tale, a life in the rough.
