Its a phase

Its just part of being a teen

There's just something wrong with you

Thats all that you see

I'm not that pretty

I'm not the smartest

Or the fastest

Thats all that you bothered to see

Whats wrong with that child?

Why can't seh be like the others?

Where did I go wrong with her?

Did you ever hear the things I whispered at night?

Did you think I cried over trivial things?

That I bawled myself to sleep over something that didn't matter?

Your just angry for no reason

Your blowng up over nothing

You need to calm down

Why don't you care about your looks?

Why couldn't you be smarter?

Why can't you be better?

I don't know why I try

I give you all that I can and more

But its never enough for you

I don't even know why

I thought that i could be good enough

I guess I was just craving your approval

The approval i'm never going to get
