I want to paint my face And pretend that I am someone else Sometimes I get so fed up I don't even want to look at myself But people have problems that are worse than mine I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time And I hate the way you look at me I have to say I wish I could start over I am slowly falling apart I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start You might think it's easy being me You just stand still, look pretty Sometimes I find myself shaking In the middle of the night And then it hits me and I can't Even believe this is my life But people have problems that are worse than mine I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time And I wish that everyone would go and shut their mouths I'm not strong enough to deal with it I am slowly falling apart I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start You might think it's easy being me You just stand still, look pretty I am slowly falling apart I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start You might think it's easy being me You just stand still, look pretty
