You lied to my face,
Pretended for a year.
To be a friend
Someone to hold dear.
But now you tell me
I'm not good enough for you
You said it was all a lie,
None of it was true.
You aided my downfall
But I still don't need you.
Without you I'm a better person
This I'm sure I knew.
All along I compromised
My character to fit in
But I still was too different
Not good enough to win.
I now ignore you,
As if I never cared
You are just an obstacle,
A burden for me to bear.
Next year a freshman
You'll go to a different school
I'll try to forget the pain you caused me
But now, I'm not a fool.
I don't have to compromise,
The way I talk, act, or look.
Even though you don't accept,
That I'd rather read a book.
Then chase after some guy,
Not caring how he acts
As long as he's 'hot'
A good heart he can lack.
Now I know,
That in my heart,
I never will fit in.
But as long as I stay true to Faith
I can always win.
