Its crap...
To never be good enough,
feel good enough,
that’s how you always feel,
Because nobodies ever made you believe otherwise.

To feel ugly,
To always look in the mirror
And no matter what I do,
I’m still ugly,

And nobodies ever let me feel otherwise,
And when they try I can’t believe them,
Because I’ll never know what’s
Really true and really not,

To always be outshined by the girl next door,
Never be the one whose lips he’s hanging on,
Just the one sitting there who might as well not exist,
And nobodies led me to believe otherwise,

To always be the one who tries so hard to make others happy,
But they just expect you to be,
Like its my duty to keep everyone happy,
And nobodies led me to believe otherwise,

To feel
Empty,
Worthless,
Like nothing,
Alone,
And always lonely...

And nobodies ever led me to believe otherwise.
