Woke up late again with my dreams all torn
Mirror's cracked glass my reflection worn
Feet heavy walking through this endless maze
Can't break the fog of these teenage days
I'm a shadow in the hallways a storm in my chest
Tried to fit their puzzle but I'm not like the rest
Screaming in my head as the world turns gray
Oh the hard life of living one teenage day
They tell me"just smile" like it's always so simple
But my heart's got dents and my soul feels brittle
Homework's a mountain my mind's a flood
Drowning in a sea still searching for love
I'm a shadow in the hallways a storm in my chest
Tried to fit their puzzle but I'm not like the rest
Screaming in my head as the world turns gray
Oh the hard life of living one teenage day
They say"just wait it gets better you'll see"
But they don't live the chaos locked inside me
Painted walls trapping memories of strife
Who knew these moments would cut like a knife
I'm a shadow in the hallways a storm in my chest
Tried to fit their puzzle but I'm not like the rest
Screaming in my head as the world turns gray
Oh the hard life of living one teenage day
