Verse 1
I cut my hair, burned my old name,
Dumbed myself down just to play the game.
Swinging alone in the empty park,
Pieces of glass to mirror the dark.
They laughed at my clothes, my accent, my face,
Pushed me around, shoved me from place to place.
Pretending to be friends, but stabbing inside,
So I ran, I hid, no place to confide.
Chorus
I became someone I wasn’t, just to fit in,
Lost myself in the lies, where do I begin?
I smoked, I stole, I ran away,
Hiding the pain I felt every day.
I’m screaming inside, but no one hears,
Teenage scars carved from all my fears.
Verse 2
Smart was a curse, my name was a joke,
Every little word, every glance that provoked.
I wore a mask, learned to blend,
Changing myself just to find a friend.
The world saw a smile, but inside I cried,
Counting the cuts, feeling denied.
A shadow in the hall, a ghost in the crowd,
Trying to be silent, but my heart’s too loud.
Chorus
I became someone I wasn’t, just to fit in,
Lost myself in the lies, where do I begin?
I smoked, I stole, I ran away,
Hiding the pain I felt every day.
I’m screaming inside, but no one hears,
Teenage scars carved from all my fears.
Bridge
I don’t want this life, this mask I wear,
I just wanted someone to see me there.
Alone in the crowd, but I still survive,
Holding the pieces that kept me alive.
Final Chorus
I became someone I wasn’t, just to fit in,
Lost myself in the lies, where do I begin?
I smoked, I stole, I ran away,
Hiding the pain I felt every day.
I’m screaming inside, but now I see,
The scars I wore made the real me free.
Outro
Shadows in the hall, but I still stand,
A broken, battered teen finding who I am.
Beexii
