One day I will be gone, never to return,
you'll search, you'll wonder, but never know why
I will fade into the darkness, lost and never found,
It is then you'll realize, that you didn't even say goodbye
Ever since I remember,
You need to change — I was told
Don’t do this, don’t do that, don’t be YOU,
The entire world against me, lo and behold!
It was a success! Well, here I am,
The ever changing version of me,
I don’t recognize the person in the mirror anymore,
Coz I’m always adapting to who YOU want me to be.
You’re too loud, you're too intense
You’re so immature, you’re such a child
Stop yelling, stop crying, stop feeling, stop speaking,
You should’ve cried, no, wait, you should’ve smiled.
I keep changing myself, hoping one day
I will be seen for who I really am,
What an irony that is, I don’t blame you,
This change thing, I tell ya, is all such a sham
But am I so flawed? God must've made a mistake!
coz nothing about me seems right, I am always in the wrong,
I'm loud, just too much, I'm impatient, I have a temper,
yes, you've all got me convinced, here, I don't belong.
Do tell me, is it really that bad to be me?
Is it bad to be loud, feisty, fun, stubborn?
I don’t question or make fun of you, so why me?
coz I've been all of that ever since I was born.
What do you get by making fun of me?
What do you get by judging me so?
I don't think you're perfect either,
so why the humiliation and what's with the pomp and show?
Now I feel worthless, and I feel unimportant
I smile, I laugh, I really try. But the truth is I just wanna die
I just wish I had the courage to make that happen,
rid you all of the nuisance I am, bid you all goodbye
But when I am not around, is when you will miss me,
coz the life of the party would be gone,
I hope that'll teach you to not bully her,
when someday another one like me comes along.
