Although it's clearly over now.
I still suffer in my woe.
The reasons you left me behind.
I don't believe I'll ever know.
Hiding behind the good things.
I try to find in myself.
Leaves only an empty feeling.
For I do not offer as much as everyone else.
My hair never looks as lovely
As most other people's do.
My smile's somewhat crooked.
And my words aren't always true.
My heart always seems to find
A way to be miserably broken.
My body's not in shape.
And I'm far too outspoken.
My eyes are an awkward color
And my shoes are never clean.
You told me I wasn't good enough.
Now I fear I know what you mean.
They say to keep your head up high.
It's hard when you feel this low.
Although it's clearly over now.
I still suffer in my woe.
