You helped me up when I was down
You were the one who took away the frown
You hugged me and said it was all right
But are you really doing this for me?

When the tears were fresh on my face
When I felt like a horrible disgrace
When I was so scared I was shaking
Where were you when I needed you?

Sometimes you make me feel not cool enough
Not good enough, not sweet enough, not for you
I felt left out of your world and in the dark
Not confident enough, not pretty enough, that too.

It’s almost like you don’t know me at all
Somehow I’m on both sides of the wall
I’m only one person but I have two lives
Why can’t you accept me for who I am?

When I’m with you I have to wear a mask
I have to be careful about the things you ask
I can’t be who I truly am, the girl I am in inside
Why can’t I answer it like I would with others?

Sometimes you make me feel not cool enough
Not good enough, not sweet enough, not for you
I felt left out of your world and in the dark
Not confident enough, not pretty enough, that too.

I’ll be waiting for the day when we all will change
We won’t think anything anyone does is strange
But for now I’ll accept you for who are
Who cares if I’m not me you’ve made me a star
