She does everything right
She never steps out of line
Or that’s how they see her
But she’s having some sh*tty days
She gets anxiety just going outside
And she’s crying and nobody even notices
She’s grown tired of feeling that she belongs to everyone
When she belongs only to herself
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
She’s worn out and it isn’t her fault
If she doesn’t care what they say about her
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
Why does she have to put on a good face
If she hasn’t had a good week?
Why fake that everything is fine
Is she forced to dress impeccably?
Inside she cries and feels miserable
And everyone tells her how amazing she looks
But she changes her clothes
She’s lost her elegance
She’s no role model for girls
But she knows what she wants
And she doesn’t care anymore
But she knows what she wants
She’s grown tired of feeling that she belongs to everyone
When she belongs only to herself
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
She’s worn out and it isn’t her fault
If she doesn’t care what they say about her
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
I’ve only tried to make everybody else’s life pleasant
Besides being pleasant I’m very authentic
Look at this body, all custom-made
She’s grown tired of feeling that she belongs to everyone
When she belongs only to herself
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
She’s worn out and it isn’t her fault
If she doesn’t care what they say about her
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
She doesn’t want to be the perfect girl
