Different Everyday


I don't know what to do,

I don't know what to say, 

I know the things they say aren't true,

But I believe them anyway.

They tell me I'm not good enough,

They tell me to be brave,

They tell me something new,

Each and every day.

They say to be yourself,

They tell you to be real, 

"You shouldn't look like that," They say,

"Just take another pill"

Just another girl in the messed up world we live in who loves when people put our feelings into words.
