What you're saying gets my mind so twisted
I've got a heart of gold, but you seem to miss it
Your words so heavy, I hold in my head
Ignore all the good, 'cause you're just so obsessed
With what I'm not yet, with what I'm not yet

Sticks and stones might break my bones under this weight
Of knowing who I am to you is a mistake
It's not okay

I'm really trying my hardest
Even when I'm in my darkest
What you want, I'll never be
You only see the worst in me
A little patience is all I need
But you only see the worst in me

The worst in me

I break your rules just by existing
Try to show my side, but it makes no difference
You'd rather leave me, wishin' I was there
Then just break your mold that I never could fit
I can't take it, I can't take it

I refuse to stay, might die if I don't leave
And stop believing in this monster that you see
'Cause it's not me

I'm really trying my hardest
Even when I'm in my darkest
What you want, I'll never be
You only see the worst in me
A little patience is all I need
But you only see the worst in me

The worst in me

I'm incomplete
Through this broken window
Your vision keeps me lost in limbo
You never see
I'm sick of being wishful
'Cause your ignorance seems so damn blissful

I'm really trying my hardest
Even when I'm in my darkest
What you want, I'll never be
You only see the worst in me
A little patience is all I need
But you only see the worst in me

The worst in me

What you want, I'll never be
You only see the worst in me
A little patience is all I need
But you only see the worst in me
