i don't know the exact moment i became so selfish
maybe the moment i let go of all the things you wanted for me
and decided to just breathe in my own air.

i don't know the exact moment i stopped being the perfect daughter you want me to be
probably both times you thought to ask me if i liked girls
or when you asked me if i needed to see a therapist after finding the letters

i don't know the exact moment i started to go into my own head for comfort instead of with my friends
now it's my thoughts that haunt me and make me shake like no earthquake could
