That Guy In The Mirror Looks Funny


I sometimes get misunderstood
My reasons get scattered and lost
It seems like people stop being good
In exchange for being the boss

But it's oh so easy to misunderstand
What's said through a mouth full of food
Most people are fine with things tasting bland
But I want flavors to match my moods

Which swing on the swing sets all day long
Ignoring the piles of homework
That sit like depression, refusing to move
'Cause I won't admit when I'm hurt

Tell me I'm perfect
I want to be perfect
I'll be there for everyone

Tell me to work hard
And get off the sofa
To go out, explore, and have fun

I used to feel eyes on me
Piercing and staring
Making me feel closed off and shy

But lately I've realized
That I can be daring
Now they stare but I don't really mind

okay ya that answered my question

[Wunsapon]

Wow, ya know, that kinda happened to me a few years ago. And in reality, that happens to everyone. We eventually grow up and get over the critisism. I give it 5/5 <3

[Jarmis]

Yeah.. that part was just about how I have mood swings sometimes, how I never do my homework, and how I can get overly depressed every now and then. Each line kinda feeds into the next one.

[Baby Treasure]

wow is that how you really feel that is deep and parts of it sad and other parts slightly happy. The only part that confuses me is
"Which swing on the swing sets all day long
Ignoring the piles of homework
That sit like depression, refusing to move
'Cause I won't admit when I'm hurt"
But I like it any way. smile
