I’ve turned myself into a ghost
Can’t see myself in the mirror
It’s getting clearer, I’ve become bitter
I’ve always been an underachiever
Stuck in my ways, a restless deceiver
Take me back to when I didn’t care,
When life was just life, without the despair
When my worth wasn’t tied to what I’d achieve,
Not living to prove, but simply to breathe
I’ve turned myself into a ghost
Can’t see me in the mirror
It’s getting clearer and clearer
I’ve turned myself into a ghost
Can’t see me in the mirror
I’ve become bitter
Underachiever
Day in, day out,
I live my life as a compromise
I am disappointed, but not surprised
Stressing myself to the limits is my therapy,
Only feel like myself when I’m struggling to breathe
Constant panic that I might miss out on me,
It’s the bars of my cage from within that I see
When others look up to me, I feel like a fraud,
They’ll find out for sure, and I’ll get caught
I am a nobody with nothing to show,
I think I could have done more, but I reaped what I sowed
I’ve turned myself into a ghost
Can’t see me in the mirror
It’s getting clearer and clearer
I’ve turned myself into a ghost
Can’t see me in the mirror
I’ve become bitter
I’m a homebody, looking at life through the window,
Wondering if I’ve always been so
I can’t comprehend the joys of others,
Black and gray are my true colors
Are my true colors
