I heard I got to see you today
I got up
I got dressed
I did my hair
All for you
I got to where you were
My friends were with me too
I was so excited
But you followed her around like a lost kitten...
You didn't even pay attention to me..
It was all about her..
Yes I know
She's prettier
She's funnier
She's better...
I got my hopes up..
I got too caught up in my own little fantasy
To focus on the reality that I will never be good enough
For anyone..
I'm too ugly
I'm too fat
I'm too awkward
I can see why you chose her..
She's perfect..
I bet you didn't realize
I didn't eat for days
To maybe lose a pound or two..
I bet you didn't realize
I spent hours
Working on my outfit
And perfected my makeup
Just to impress you..
But you were lollygagging around
Drooling pools over her
I'm sorry
I'm sorry I'm not good enough...
