I'm not all you think I am
You don't want the burden
That my life will cast upon you
Even though you long to steal it
You only add to the weight
Don't make me be good for you
Do you not realize how hard it is
To not be able to be myself
Without seeing every mistake in you?
It hurts enough to look inside myself
I don't need it in the mirror
The tormented mirror that is you
You have many names, many faces
But you're all the same
You don't want to be like me
The world doesn't need more than one
Copy of my imperfection
I've caused enough damage on my own
