My whole fucking life
No one asked whats wrong
I could go from happy to pissed
In two seconds flat
I'd snap and they'd just leave me alone
I was the outcast
No one cared for me

He just wanted to help
But I couldn't let him in
He understood that I was alone
In being who I was
He cried when I told him
I was leaving for New York
One last time he held me
And one last time we said goodbye
I wiped his tears away
And promised I'd never forget

I came out here
And was accepted for who I was
A silent withdrawn girl

Now I laugh and talk
With my best friend
She always knows
What mood I'm in

And asks whats wrong
When I'm upset and withdrawn
We love the same guys
And hate them too
We hare so many problems
We could pass as sisters

My parents simply hate her
Because I'm more open with her
Than I am with them
Mom doesn't understand
I'm ready to grow up

But she wont let me change
Into the person I want to be
The person I need to be
So I live here in my lie

But my friend, she knows
The pain I hide inside
She knows what its like
To live in a lie
Because she does it too
And only we know

What its like to have the door
Slammed in our faces
Because of who we are

But fuck them all
Because we'll live through
The hard times to come
But they'll fade away

When the pain they caused
Is directed at them
