There she is again
she’s staring at me
with those penetrating blue eyes
she’s judging me again
she doesn’t like what she sees
she never will, she never will...

Day after day she looks
she looks at my imperfections
she is disgusted by what she sees
I cant blame her, I am too

Its terrifying and I cant take it
ashamed of what she sees
she makes me feel guilty
I want to change
if I could change for her I would

I would given anything to put a smile
on that sad girls face
she’s fed up with the way things are going
so she takes it out on me
she tells me Im useless,
that Im just taking up space
she’s right, she’s always right

I see her everywhere
she is inside of me, calling my name
she wants me to change
and I want to change for her

She is perfect, and she knows it
I am no where near perfect, and she knows it too
she reminds me of that everyday
and I will never forget it

This girl, this girl with the vicious blue eyes
she is everything i want to be
she is beautiful, she is weightless
and she is perfect...

she calls me to her trap
she is pulling me closer into the deceitful trap
and I cant resist, I want to follow her
After all, this girl is not so different from me
she's just what i strive to be everyday
this girl is me, only she is perfect...and Im not.

Thank you, and stay strong...dont let her get you, it's hard and I am powerless to her. Day after day, I fall more and more into her trap, beating myself up for not doing what she wants me to. And it's hard, either way it's hard. If I dont listen to her, I hate myself, but if I do listen to her...and I fail, I hate myself even more.
