(Present time)
"Oh hush, my dear, it's been a difficult year"

Bruce comforts Marinette. It was true she had been through alot in the past year.

And terrors don't prey on
Innocent victims

Marinette hadn't been bad but, it seemed as if she was being punished for the previous Miraculous Guardian's misdeeds.

"Trust me, darling, trust me darling"

Dick said, in an attempt to soothe her as she cried in the living room at Wayne Manor.

It's been a loveless year

As she looked back on the year she realized just how much hate, disgust and disappointment was thrown in her direction and it hurt. It hurt because it was all coming from people she loved and cared about like family, and it all happened because of Lila Rossi.

I'm a girl ( man ) of three fears
Integrity, faith and
Crocodile tears

Lila was the cause of her fear and pain. Lila had destroyed everything Marinette worked to build up and maintain, with the use of crocodile tears, lies and turning Marinette's integrity and faith against her.

"Trust me, darling, trust me, darling"- Selina

As much as Marinette wanted to do just, that she was scared of trusting the wrong persons again.

So look me in the eyes
Tell me what you see

When looking into the eyes of the Waynes, who had welcomed her into their home, after they had been told by Jagged Stone that his Rock'n honorary niece and designer MDCRS ( Marinette Dupain-Cheng Rolling-Stone) had been orphaned. ( Lila had pushed the Tom and Sabine into oncoming traffic, Lila had tried to turn Marinette's parents against her but failed. So Lila decided to get rid of them. ) She saw that they desperately wanted to help her.

Perfect paradise
Tearing at the seams

At first glance Marinette was a happy go-lucky teenage girl, but if you looked closer you could see that the trauma and guilt was tearing her apart.

Reflecting on what she felt. Marinette realized how guilty she felt because her parent's deaths had been used as a pawn by Lila to break her and because of how many times she feels that she failed the citizens of Paris. She had seen so many people die in horrifying ways, but the final battle against hawmoth almost broke her.

I wish I could escape

It wasn't her choice to escape, but she did. But was it too late to save her sanity, self-confidence and conscience?

I don't want to fake it

She doesn't, she really doesn't. Marinette doesn't want to fake being happy or okay or perfect. She wants to be authentic in her emotions.

Wish I could erase it
Make your heart believe

She wished that she could erase the experience of having to deal with everything that hawkmoth's reign had brought. Erase her depression and problems. She didn't want others to worry about her and her mental state, she didn't want to be sad; so she tried to force herself to be happy and okay.

But I'm a bad liar, bad liar

It's true when she would make up an excuse so she could deal with akumas they always sounded outlandish and unbelievable.
