For years you thought I was perfect, for years you thought this was true
But all those years I was fake, those years I hid myself from you
You thought I was innocent, you thought I was so good
Believed that I followed rules and always did the things I should
You could look at me a smile, I'd bring home a good grade
We had trust, love, and my privacy you wouldn't invade
Now you know the truth, you know now the real me
And to think all those years you still could never see
Thought I'd be the person you had always wanted to be
Sorry but that's a person who's just not me
Ready to test my wings in this great big world
Going to perfume and makeup from ribbons and curls
You would have never guessed all those things I do are true
So overcome by the good things that you can't see how I've become you
Doing things you never wanted me to know or imagine me try
Just let me be so I can learn how to fly
Getting me tested, keeping me enclosed and so unfree
You're so blind to not know I'm just trying to find the real me
But now I'm so alone, dark and scared by so many things
Could have let me learn but instead you took aways my wings
Even now you still can't see the pain I'm put through
And still you don't realize I'm only this way because of you
