I've lost all ambition
I'm tired of having to listen
All light has left my eyes
While the rest of me slowly dies
My heart withers and aches
Overwhelmed by emotion my body shakes
Warm salty tears wet my cheeks
I haven't slept in weeks
If you notice my chest is empty
Not quite as full
Because there rests the shadow of
My lost soul

I know I've been a selfish person
I told you I'm sorry, what else is there to say?
I just have to get away
I'm ready to leave and be done
I'm tired of the pain
It's been driving me insane
I pray you remember my name
Without bitter disappointment and shame
Of how I walked away..

Who's that broken girl you see in the mirror
The girl you try and hide away from the world
The girl with the frown scarring her pretty face
The girl with scarlet lacing on her wrists
With the red beads turning to streams
Who's falling apart at the seams
She is drowning in pain
As her tears fall like rain
She cuts from elbow to wrist
Knowing she won't be missed
She watches as crimson stains the tiled floor
Craving just a little bit more
Her hand glides one more time
Quick, from side to side
Her last farewell
Her final goodbye
Now she closes her eyes
Letting out a quivering breath
Embracing death

I know I'm
Not good enough for A team
Not fast enough for B team
Just quick enough for C team
Just barely above D team

I know that you say
He's not good enough for me
You don't approve
No one approves
He's not good enough for me

I'm not as gorgeous as you
I'm not as pretty as her
I'm not your average cute
On the verge of unsightly

My parents say I've changed
My friends say I'm different
I'm sorry I'm not your little girl anymore
I'm sorry I'm not perfect forevermore

I'm showing a few cracks
I know what I lack
You say I'm not good enough
Tell me something I don't know

Tell me of your imperfections
Tell me I'm not the only one
Tell me what you see in your reflection
Tell me of the wrong you've done

Tell me something
Tell me anything
Tell me it's okay to change
Tell me it's okay to be different
Tell me something I don't know

I know I'm
Not confident enough
Not tough enough
Not loud enough
Tell me something I don't know
Because I already know
I'm not now and never will be
Good enough
So now, tell me,
Something I don't know
