The Real Me

Picture me
With a smile on my face
Living a happy life
With so much grace

Now open up
Your pale blue eyes
and soak in me
Soak in those lies

You look me in the eye
And a smile is all you see
You see this happy girl
I'm sorry that girl just isn't me

I'd like you
to meet the other side of me
The one who cries every night
The one where darkness is all she See's

I'd like you
To meet the sad girl behind green eyes
the one who cuts her wrist
Because of those sad lies

this is my confession
that I'm not the girl you thought
I'm the dark one in a lit room
I'm the one who always gets caught

Look me in the eye
And meet the real me
Look me in the eye
And tell me what you see
