• When you look at me
    All you see
    Is a picture of perfection
    Not the sad and lonely girl
    Whose mom says
    She's suffering from depression

    When you look at me
    All you see
    Is a pearly white smile
    You don't see
    The burdens I carry
    For miles and miles

    When you look at me
    I try to hide my tears
    But when I get home
    The sadness cuts through me
    Like a pair of shears

    When you look at me
    You only look at the surface
    Because you think
    That what's inside
    Is also perfect

    But you're sadly mistaken
    My life is in pieces
    All I can do
    Is succumb to this weakness
