I’m familiar with the pain 

Of when you look at that person with adoring eyes

Only for them to look at someone else 

I’m familiar with the pain 

Of that slight stabbing feeling when someone you loved 

Is with someone else

I’m familiar with the pain

Of when someone rejects you,

Twisting the knife further into your heart

I’m familiar with the pain

When someone you thought was your friend 

Stabs you in the back and with the other hand helps you up

I’m familiar with the pain 

When an old lover has found another 

Before you

I’m familiar with the pain 

Of never being quite enough, 

Hair not perfect enough,

Teeth not bright enough,

Legs not thin enough 

I’m familiar with pain

I can’t escape it
