GLOSSY TEETH

Straightened hair and glossy teeth
Nice to you but not to me
I didn't know I'd fit those jeans

Nothing about us was the same
Except the roles we played in games
Yet I was placed in your domain

It wasn't you that I hated
It's that you were what they wanted from me
We both grew and I made it
I'm happy and I'm nothing close to you

Oh, I wish I knew
I wish I knew

Quiet tone and white tipped nails
The epitome of pretty and frail
While bugs and dirt were my holy grail

When traced with you I couldn't compare
If life's a race then it isn't fair
Freedom was my secret prayer

It wasn't you that I hated
It's that you were what they wanted from me
We both grew, I wouldn't have made it
If I wasted years attempting to be like you

But I wish I knew
Oh I wish I knew

If I could go back, I'd tell me that there's another way to live
Erase the lines from which inside I once tried to live
