Crying in the Corner

I feel it forming in my eye
Why are people laughing as I cry

It makes me wonder why the world is so cold
Why does it matter if I'm young or old

Sometimes it's good
Sometimes it's bad
It needs to happen
I'm always sad

I try to do it when I'm alone
I can't be that person
That cries on the phone

I need to be brave
Put on a happy face
Keep going and going
And win the race

The race between me and that other girl
The one who is pretty with perfect curls

But she is not me
She will never be
So I have to keep trying
Because if they ever see

I won't be able to live
And I won't be able to flee
I will be stuck in this world
Crying endlessly
