“If there’s three people saying, ‘You’re amazing,’ you don’t think, ‘Why are they saying I’m amazing?’ because they’re a fan, but if there’s one saying, ‘I hate you,’ it’s like, why do you hate me? What have I done? I can take criticism really well, but if it’s just a, ‘I don’t like you,’ then I want to know why you don’t like me. I’ve always wanted to be one of those people who didn’t care much about what people thought about them, but I just don’t think I am.”

You were once so beautiful
You were once able to stand tall and proud
You were once so bright and lovely
But now you’re bending down

Your petals were once so firm
So neatly arranged
But now they are weak
So crumbled and deranged

What is bringing you down
What is it you’re trying to say
Please don’t give up
Don’t bleed your petals away
