Picture Perfect Teen

Couple's of the year, nicest smile, best hair,
Girls hiding in the bathroom, crying is despair
"She always wins everything, her life is so good."
God, you have no idea, I think you've misunderstood

Sure, Mummy stops crying sometimes
Daddy doesn't always drink, brother doesn't always commit crimes
And I guess the tears stop coming after a while
It doesn't always take a death threat to make me smile

They aren't always screaming, fighting to the death
They stop every once in a while, just to catch their breath
We don't always hide, miss whole weeks of school
Wait, can you tell me, now does my life seem so cool?

Or would you like to be abused like me?
More of my shitty life you'd like to see?
How about some blood, want to see some scars?
No, bet you didn't think that of me, never knew I went so far?

How about we talk in opposites, Hi, Kelsey is not my name
I am happy every day. Yes, we are the same
I don't have a death wish. Your problems? I really do care
Gee I'm so glad we had this talk, and we were able to share.
