13

When you hit 13, it's like all of a sudden
You need to look a certain way to fit in with everyone
And at 13, it's like everything you learned about
Bein' yourself, it all goes to hell and well
Don't really care about the followers
The ever-superiors, and insecure
Cheerleaders don't seem to want me here
Done with the pretenders who just can't remember
Things used to be better

I became a teenager and
Things got worse and
My friends are mean and
Songs aren't clean and
Everybody's messin' up but
Nobody is fessin' up
And life is a drama but they cut you from the scene
Cuz you aren't pretty enough to be put upon a screen and
Everybody's messin' up but
Nobody is fessin' up

When you hit 13, and you look in the mirror
You wonder why everyone else's skin is so much clearer
At 13, you gotta look like a model
Cuz no one's gonna want you if you don't get hotter well
I'm done with all the fakin', the self-deprecation
Pretending you're jokin' to get validation
So how about takin' a little vacation from your self-hatred

I became a teenager and
Things got worse and
My friends are mean and
Songs aren't clean and
Everybody's messin' up but
Nobody is fessin' up
And life is a drama but they cut you from the scene
Cuz you aren't pretty enough to be put upon a screen and
Everybody's messin' up but
Nobody is fessin' up

See over there she thinks she's better than me
And I can guarantee her friends agree
And all the guys are straight up mean but I don't blame them
It's just because they're 13
