Lyrics
A casual glance, a misinterpreted word
A laugh that cuts a little too deep
My mind races insecurities stirred
Rejection sensitivity, a secret I keep
Behind this mask, a fragile heart bleeds
Every slight a catastrophic blow
But I'll brush it off, plant the seeds
Of indifference, a facade to show
The world sees strength, resilience untold
A carefree spirit, unburdened and bright
But inside, a storm rages uncontrolled
Rejection, sensitivity, my constant plight
I yearn for connection, for acceptance true
But fear holds me captive, a prisoner in my own skin
So I'll keep on pretending that I don't care for you
While inside the pain echoes A battle I can't win
Behind this mask, a fragile heart bleeds
Every slight a catastrophic blow
But I'll brush it off, plant the seeds
Of indifference, of facade to show
Oh, the irony of it all
This cruel twist of fate
To crave love and belonging
Yet push it away
Rejection, sensitivity, my eternal weight
A silent struggle I face every day
