Stop for a moment and look As closely as you can at me. Now, do you see the difference between Who I really am and who you see?
You see someone who hasn't existed For many many years now It'll be hard to get her back but I know you'll manage somehow
You'll push and push till she appears Whether I like it or not. She's a better person in your eyes I only resemble her somewhat
She's charming, smart and confident. I'm just a work in progress. She's the one to get work done I was her once and now I've regressed.
So sure you are that you know me When I myself have no clue Maybe you see things in me that I don't Maybe someday I'll see them through you.
Everytime you tell me to be her The confidence I've built starts to shake What if I can't be what you want? I'll be just another mistake you made.
I'm more scared of what you think of me Than what the world has to say They're not the ones who raised me And loved me everyday.
Everytime we talk, I'm looking for The answers that will make you proud Sometimes, I keep in what I really feel Sometimes I don't know what you're talking about.
You think I lost myself somewhere I think you don't like who I've become "Ordinary, average, mediocre, A girl who just wants to have fun"
These words you've used to describe me now. You just want the old me back. You want me to want to be her again She's the epitome of everything I lack.
You don't see how hard I'm trying You just want the end result You don't see me as I am You just see who I can become.
