This isn't supposed to be me
I attempt to convince myself that I dont't care
It wasn't supposed to be you
The broken barbie dolls of my past remind me
of who I'm supposed to be
You were all the right things but
not the right person
Pasted lipstick and
chipped nail polish
convince me that I'm just laying into the pressures of society
Sweet plums still linger on my skin with
cheap thrills and empty hugs
Snow white blush followed by plastic smiles
hide the thoughts that consume me
I thought you liked me first
But strands of confusion
On who I'm supposed to be remind me that this isn't me
Or at least its not supposed to be
when is it my turn to be loved
