Maybe we're not so different, you and me
I keep my head held high,
Thoughts keep invading my mind.
Forever stays glued to my face a smile,
But no one knows about the darkness inside.

I know I'm not alone,
But sometimes I forget it.
And I need someone to remind me,
It makes me feel so needy.

I'm insecure and that's okay.
I can't expect everything to be the same.
The world changes and people change,
But I can't let myself be carried away.

I give expert advice,
To everyone I meet.
But actually following it myself,
Is a tricky promise to keep.

I am beautiful and I am broken.
I can fix myself and I know it.
I am loved and I am worthy.
I'll be okay, slow and steady.

No one can take away my personality.
You can try but you won't succeed.
Honesty is the only way to finally see,
That we're not so different, you and me.
