Crack in the Windshield...or something like it

Wait, is that a tear? miss always-happy's feelin' low?
Are you really leaving? miss always-there has gotta go?
The makeup comes off, and they see the bareness that is real
A little shocked, a little scared, cuz they realize miss tough really feels
No more games of tic tac toe, predictability has gotta go
Determined that I wouldn't break
Well wasn't that a big mistake

Because they assumed I'd always be fine
Never let negativity get to my mind
Assumed I was a big enough girl
to put up with this crazy world
But it's been too much all at once
and I've got to drop the front
I'm finally breaking

Can you see me?


Watch the language, miss always sweet's had it up to here,
Hear the music, as I play the truth right into your ear.
Sweat pants on and wearing an old torn hat
Miss material wants to know if you can handle that
No more time for playing nice, I played too long and I paid the price
Kept it all in and I'm blowing up, spewing out all that my pain consists of

Because you assumed I'd be fine
Assumed I wouldn't have you on my mind
Assumed I was a big enough girl
to live without you in this crazy world
But it's been too much all at once
and I can't help but drop the front
I'm finally breaking
