What do you see when you look at me?
do you see a lost,sad girl
someone who is confused and doesn't know where she belongs
always worrying about her imperfections

do you see a mad girl
someone with low self-esteem
who cant get anyone to hear her

do you see a nobody
just another face in the crowd
just another girl

do you see a tired girl
someone who fakes her laughs and smiles
who lies about being okay

Do you see it too or is it just me?
