Be yourself really means be who we want you to be.
Special means different, and different isn't what they wanted.
They wanted that perfect daughter.
All A's in school.
Climbing up that social ladder people seem so obsessed with.
Taking chances, taking risks, but not this.
Not falling from the ladder down to the bottom.
Not doing bad in school, because according to them I can do better.
Don't do this, don't do that.
We know you better than you think.
Stop lying, stop saying that.
You don't know me.
How would you know that I'm not trying my best?
Are you there sitting beside me in the back of my class?
Are you the one taking that stupid test?
No.
Someone tell me I'm not crazy.
Tell me I'm not the only one.
Tell me not to run.
Lie to me and say that everything will be fine.
Be yourself.
Okay.
No! You're doing it the wrong way!
I'm saying sorry for being the person I want to be, because I know deep down they don't want the real me.
