Perfect morning
Perfect smile
Perfect face
Looking back in a perfect mirror

On goes the make-up
Swallow down the fear
This is no time
To shed all those tears
And if they knew?
I'd be done

Perfect little girl
Perfect little life
Family who loves me
And the love of my life
All backing me up
So many friends there too
So why the glum face?
What's wrong with you?

What's wrong with me?
Let's start with
I can't breathe
There's no end
To the thoughts
Roaming and swirling
Inside my head
Thoughts that tell me
Different than the mirror
I'm not perfect
How could I be?

I just have a life
That looks like it
Don't I?

Parents together
Raised by love
Siblings, sister and brother
Never alone
No
Always alone

I'm always alone
Because I'm always hiding
In my head
Where the thoughts never stop whirling
The anger never ceases
Unless I chase it away with pain
So tell me, what's wrong with me?

Perfect morning
Perfect smile
Perfectly broken
Perfectly in denial
