You stare.
You whisper, but your voices echo throughout my head.
Your assumptions couldn't be any farther from the truth.

What you'll never understand is that these aren't signs of rebellion against society.
What you'll never understand is that how I choose to live my life really has nothing to do with you.

I didn't get these for attention.
That couldn't be any farther from the truth.

See what you'll never understand is that for as long as I could remember...
I was never comfortable in my own skin.
I was never comfortable with who I was on the outside.
I hated what I saw, I hated what you saw.
I hated the perception I had of myself.
I hated the perception I had of what you thought of me.

What you'll never understand is that I was just trying to be comfortable with myself.
That I was just trying to find myself in an image that I could see and smile.
I was just trying to make what I saw in the mirror match the person I felt I was on the inside.
