I'm Not Who You Think I Am

Always smiling and laughing

Bubbly and energetic

Happy and carefree

That's who you see

But that's not the real me

You wouldn't ever figure out

How many angry red lines I have made

Or how many times I've almost lost

That girl who you think I am?

Isn't even close to the real me.

I'm not who you think I am

Not anymore that is

I was that girl once

But she's long gone now

It's all a lie, you don't know me.

That smile and laugh?

Fake and forced

That bubbly and energetic girl?

Is just a facade

But you wouldn't ever know

I'm not who you think I am

Not anymore that is

I was that girl once

I was young and naive- standing tall

But they knocked me down

I tried to get up again

But they just knocked me right back down

Each time I got up

They knocked me back down

I stopped getting up

Piece by piece

They tore me apart

And left me for dead

I call for help

But nobody hears me

Soon my walls were built up

High and invincible 

Each brick was made of 

My broken hopes and dreams

Glued together with my tears

I'm not who you think I am

Not anymore that is

I was that girl once

But she's long gone now

It's all a lie, you don't know me.

Why why why

Tell me why 

Don't I feel anything?

why why why

Tell me why

'Cause I'm not who you think I am

Nowhere close

To who I'm pretending to be

I'm just a poser

Trying to be a normal girl
