lie to me

tell me I'm good enough

I'm young

and drunk

and desperate for attention

tell me I'm pretty;

I'm fucked up

and insecure

and got a bad intention

tell me I'm skinny

I'm not eating

and scared

I never did mention

tell me I'm strong

because I'm weak

and breaking

need an intervention

tell me I'm smart

cus' I feel dumb

and unimportant

a point of contention:

tell me I matter 

cus I feel small

and insignificant;

And like I don't matter at all
