I think I’m a little misunderstood
I’m not sure how people perceive me
But when I say I don’t think I’m the best
Nobody seems to believe me

Everybody seems to think they know me
But I wonder if they really do
They seem to think they know what’s best for me
But I don’t think that’s really true

I don’t know what I want
I don’t know who I am
I know what I’m scared of
Coz I’m scared of everything
I can’t make decisions
I can’t make up my mind
I don’t know where to turn next
It’s just like I’m blind

I’m too afraid to follow my dreams
Coz they’re all too far fetched
There’s bound to be someone better than me
I’ll settle for second best

I realised why no one understands me
I don’t even understand myself
Why do I ask everyone’s opinion?
When I know that no one can help

I don’t know what I want
I don’t know who I am
I know what I’m scared of
Coz I’m scared of everything
I can’t make decisions
I can’t make up my mind
I don’t know where to turn next
It’s just like I’m blind

Everyone puts in their two cents
But I know it’s all up to me
But I think I’ll take my time choosing
Who I’m going to be

I don’t know what I want
I don’t know who I am
I know what I’m scared of
Coz I’m scared of everything
I can’t make decisions
I can’t make up my mind
I don’t know where to turn next
It’s just like I’m blind
If I die young
bury me in satin
lay me down on a bed of roses
sink me in the river, at dawn
send me away with the words of a love song
<3

I love this poem, because I know exactly how it feels. You want so deeply to understand everything, but yet you don't even understand yourself. You view yourself a second-best, because your too sacred of being first. I love this poem, and hope that someday both of us will not only understand ourselves, but how others see us as well.
I may not be the brightest crayon in the box. I might not be the prettiest, shiniest or favorite. I might not be anything to anyone, but yet I'm still in the box.

There's nothing wrong with you. There's a lot wrong with the world you live in. - Chris Colfer

I love you all, and thank you for reading my posts

I agree with MickeysTWin. I know how it feels to be confused about life and I defiantly know how it feels to be blind (had to wear a scarf around my eyes for three days... don't ask)
Anyway, good lyrics, strong structure and generally an impressive song :)

They don't even know you
All they see is scars
They don't see the angel
Living in your heart
Let them find the real you
Buried deep within
Let them know with all you've got that you are not your skin
-Skin, Sixx:A.M



When we are children we seldom think of the future. This innocence leaves us free to enjoy ourselves as few adults can. The day we fret about the future is the day we leave our childhood behind.
