I'm not a big girl
Don't sit there and tell me
That you're strong
When tears flood your eyes; self inflicted tears
You're a liar
You throw your head back
Like you know more than me
But I know you

I know you regret the summer you were released
I know how you wish and prayed for a quick release
I know how you wailed yourself to sleep at night
Hating yourself for what's inside
I know you inside and out, through and through,
Better than you

And I know how you crumble at the drop of pin
The breath of a name
The memory of a face
I love how strong you try to be
Yet we both know you're paper thin
With a heart so pained, I'd hate to own it
Because of how much you destroyed it

And how much it destroyed you
Remember the day you decided?
That you knew what to do?
That you could erase it all?

I remember that day
As clear as you
They found you swingin'
And your mother screamed

I love how strong you tried to be
Yet we both know you're paper thin
With a heart so pained, I'd hate to own it
Because of how much you destroyed it
