----------------------- 𝕰𝖑𝖑𝖆 © 2025 @𝖊𝖙𝖍𝖊𝖗𝖊𝖆𝖑_𝖈𝖍𝖆𝖔𝖘𝖈𝖔𝖗𝖊 ------------------------ [verse 1]: I stay in my closet To hide from my problems To pray that they don't read What's on my mind lately Hello again, dear diary Let me tell you what's on my mind lately I've got voices in my head I cry every night I go to bed Writing lyrics till my head's spinnin' Threateningly protective parents I don't even know what to do This scares me more than it scares you! [chorus]: I'm pretty when I'm paranoid At this point I have no choice I don't wanna be all woe is me But I'm not aloud, so I'll just scream Every dream turns into a nightmare Cause when I try, anxiety's there I just want to say "it's not fair" "But life never is", that's all I hear! (pretty when i'm paranoid don't care if this kills my joy) [verse 2]: I don't wanna be a deadbeat kid I hate real life, maybe that's just it I don't want to be called ungrateful again I want to be the daughter who isn't a witch I want to be able to be independent I want to be just a normal, simple Christian (But I'm not, I was taught to control my emotions!) (But I can't even do that, cause then I'd feel hopeless!) They give me tough love, which I've gotten used to I can't say anything without second guessing if i'll get screwed [chorus]: I'm pretty when I'm paranoid At this point I have no choice I don't wanna be all woe is me But I'm not aloud, so I'll just scream Every dream turns into a nightmare Cause when I try, anxiety's there I just want to say "it's not fair" "But life never is", that's all I hear! (pretty when i'm paranoid don't care if this kills my joy) [bridge]: So I hug my teddy bear And try to calm every fear Then I slip into the age of five Tryin' to remember the good things in life Then pray to God that Things might be alright So I keep this little light of mine To help my smaller state of mind [chorus]: I'm pretty when I'm paranoid At this point I have no choice I don't wanna be all woe is me But I'm not aloud, so I'll just scream Every dream turns into a nightmare Cause when I try, anxiety's there I just want to say "it's not fair" "But life never is", that's all I hear! (pretty when i'm paranoid don't care if this kills my joy) [final chorus]: I'm pretty when I'm paranoid At this point I have no choice I don't wanna be all woe is me But I'm not aloud, so I'll just scream Every dream turns into a nightmare Cause when I try, anxiety's there I just want to say "it's not fair" "But life never is", that's all I hear! (pretty when i'm paranoid don't care if this kills my joy) [outro]: Always worried deep in childish thoughts That's why every thought I turn into a song Maybe this passion is my obsession after all But I still can't live without it, there I said it, is that so wrong?
