I Lie

I Lie
I lie to protect myself and
I make up stories to seem exciting
I need security of people liking me
I can't be boring or else they will hate me
But I can't quite figure out how they could like me
For who I am
How pathetic is my life?
But don't feel sorry

I lie to have attention
I get it by pretending I have things I don't have
Like the cabbage patch kids that the girls have
This lie I've taken too far (wish I could take back)
But I can't quite figure out how they could like me
For who I am
How pathetic is my life?
But don't feel sorry for me!
Poor little me!
I lie and no one knows it
I'd like to be known as special
Don't judge me 'til I tell you what I did last night
I flew up on a kite! can you believe that?
But I can't quite figure out how they could like me
For who I am
How pathetic is my life?
But don't feel sorry for me!
Poor little me!
