can you hear me now?
do you understand me now?
can you see the real me now?
do you know me now?
i continue to fake it,
for everyone.
in fear of losing a "friend"
i turn up the charm,
and tell you what you want
to hear.
i don't feel REAL
i don't feel ALIVE
i feel like
Alice, and i truly am
lost.
everyday, you say
you're ugly.
so i hide my face,
to burn your eyes no more.
everyday, you say
you're beautiful.
so i pull back my hair,
towhere you can take it all in.
everyday, you say
you're to loud.
so i shut up,
so your ears won't bleed.
i'm different for all of you,
never ever am i the same Elise.
when you are all together,
all hell breaks loose in my head,
and i get scared- and run.
would you do me a favour,
and try to know me?
attempt to realize
what i do for you?
i only want you to be happy...
don't you want the same for me?
so stop telling me things,
to make me change.
stop telling me things,
i should change.
why don't YOU change?
or no, don't....
i don't want you to loose your
"perfect" status.
i will never be the Prom queen.
i will never be a celebrity.
i will never be truly amazing,
if you don't stop changing me,
eventually i will snap-
and hell will collide with Earth thru me.
stop telling me to change- my anger will be
released.
just TRY to get to know ME,
just stop sometime and say
"what's on your mind..."
and listen.
get to know,
me.
i can't be that bad,
can i?
