Someone Else

by withlove   May 8, 2008


Nor sure if i like the title but let me know what you think =D

I look in the mirror and what do I see
Someone I don't like someone who doesn't exactly know who she should be
She's gotten a little happier recently but something keeps bringing her down
Maybe it's everything and everyone she's lost maybe it's just this town
Maybe it's that boy that's always on her mind
Or the fact that love is something she has never really been able to find
But I think there's something much deeper that's making life so tough
Finding it so hard to deal with failure and feeling like she will never be good enough

But I don't wanna be like them
I just wanna be a better version of myself
Someone who can finally be happy and not worry about the thoughts or opinions of anybody else
I look around and constantly question what I see
But I just wanna be...me

This new place and constant rejections bringing out things she could never realize
Not wanting to go around them cause shes afraid shell be ugly in their eyes
She doesn't wanna give into all this pain and strife
or this disorder and the fact she's thought about ending her life

But i don't wanna be like them
I just wanna be a better version of myself
Someone who can finally be happy and not worry about the thoughts or opinions of anybody else
I look around and constantly question what I see
But I just wanna be...me
I just wanna be me
