My skin doesn't fit
My words seem so hollow
I feel like a fraud
And that's a bitter pill to swallow
Sometimes it hits me right between the eyes
Everyone can see through my disguise

I didn't feel right in my world any more. I had no parents, my brother was the new town druggie, and I'd just dumped my bestfriend/boyfriend. I felt like everyone could see though me, now. I wasn't the cool, confident girl anymore.

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face
In a make-believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe
So easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

So quickly, I was out of the popular circle. Bonnie had stepped out with me. Caroline had took my queen bee place and had all the boys falling all over her. I tried to keep up the happy golden girl cheerleader act for a while, but my grades started to drop.

All alone in the mirror
All alone on the shelf
I'm trying to hold on
To a little piece of myself
Doesn't anybody realize
Even I don't buy my own disguise

I felt more alone than I ever had. I was trying to cling to my old life, but that was long gone. I looked in the mirror and repeated the words over and over. Even I didn't fall for it.

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face
In a make-believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe
So easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

There's a part of me that's fighting back
There's a part of me that knows
When I'm pouring out my heart
I'm still putting on a show

It was the begining of my Senior year and I was going to better. I was still acting, I was pouring my heart into it though.

Who am I fooling
In a make-believe world
Who am I fooling
So easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

When I met Stefan, thing started to get better. Then they got worse again when Damon came in. Then, he got nicer and they looked up again. Jeremy stopped with the drugs, my friends slowly came back, and I had a great boyfriend and new best friend.

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face
In a make-believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe
So easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

I still acted sometimes, when things were going wrong. I tried to be perfect around Stefan and everyone else, and let loose a bit with Damon. I didn't fake smile and gave up trying to lie.

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face
In a make-believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe
So easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl
Pretending I'm a perfect girl
