Staring at the mirror
Smiling at myself
A teenage girl in pigtails
Lying to herself

Depression is a plague
Passed to her from another
And she knows when she’s alone
That pretty smiled will begin to falter

She has lost herself
in the grip of reality
So pressured to fit in
She’s lost all originality

High schools  such a drag
She wishes it would end
All the two-faced bitches
Pretending to be your friends

And so she sits alone
With her fake smile and her tears
Listening to her headphones
That are screaming in her ears

Maybe one day she’ll grow up
The pain in her heart will mend
Maybe one day she’ll forget
How she wanted life to end
