SadFace

I want everyone here,
Listen once,
Lately, it’s like I don’t appear,
What impression do I make?
Am I boring, Daddy?
Can you hear me, for God’s sake?

Six-nine-nine-oh,
Confident leather,
Fit from heel to toe,
But nope, not enough,
“Let’s go together,”
And just, puff,
There goes my hope,
For an all new image.

Would it matter,
If I ran away,
Would you even want to take me back.
Crying in the rain,
Head against the track,
Is it my fault that I’m insane?
Where’s my money,
Where’d it go,
Unpretty, unhappy, unfunny,
And I think you know,
What I really want,
Just wish you’d leave me alone.

You took them on,
But you left me out,
Why, what did I do wrong?
It adds to my doubt.
Can I be beautiful?
Can I be cool?
Can I find love?
Least I’m not a tool,
If push comes to shove.

Mommy, mommy,
You’re never online,
Surrogate mommy,
She cares if I’m fine.
“Hey, Panda,
Are you okay?
Sounding a little more depressed,
With each day.”

Would it matter,
If I ran away,
Would you even want to take me back.
Crying in the rain,
Head against the track,
Is it my fault that I’m insane?
Where’s my money,
Where’d it go,
Unpretty, unhappy, unfunny,
And I think you know,
What I really want,
Just wish you’d leave me alone.

I’m sorry I bugged you,
For a puppy when I was seven,
I’m sorry I questioned in school,
Whether there was a heaven,
I’m sorry for the D,
I got in second grade,
I’m sorry I was me,
I’m sorry I’m second rate.

Would it matter,
If I ran away,
Would you even want to take me back.
Crying in the rain,
Head against the track,
Is it my fault that I’m insane?
Where’s my money,
Where’d it go,
Unpretty, unhappy, unfunny,
And I think you know,
What I really want,
Just wish you’d leave me alone.
