Laid on your bed at night and just cried.
Cried because you're ugly. Because you're not
Good enough. You counted all your flaws from
Head to toe to punish and feel worse about
Yourself. Cried because the comments people
Blurt out, actually hurt your feelings. Cried
Because your family is dysfunctional, but
You're just a kid who can't do shit about it.
They tell you to stop complaining, that you
Have it much better than the kids in Africa.
You don't want to be a burden, so you bottle
It all up. Around people, you're the happiest
Ray of sunshine. But nobody knows, that at
Night when you're alone, you break down and
Just cry cause I feel like that all the time.
