If you think I am perfect
You are sorely mistaken
And if you think I am flawless
I am surely forsaken

I am covered in scars
From wars waged by the mind
I am filled with tears
That no eyes could ever find

So, if you think I am ideal
So kind, so beautiful, and smart
I will be quick to remind you
That I have an empty heart

That I am only a little girl
Made of flesh and bone
I am only a little girl
Who is scared of being alone.
