Look at the girl in front of you.
What do you see?
    An emo girl with no fashion sense.
    A girl with too much eyeliner.
    A girl who obviously has no emotions.
You wanna know a secret?
    I listen to everything you say.
You can't see me trying so hard to put outfits together.
    You can't see the smile when I get my eyeliner just right.
        You can't see me starve myself to be perfect.
You call me a slut,
    but the guy of my dreams won't even look at me.
You criticize everything I'm wearing,
    but I was up planning last night to make sure I looked perfect.
You turn your back when there's a single tear,
    but I cry so hard every night while you ignore me.
Look at the girl standing in front of you.
    I just wish you could really see me.
