White Dress

I used to be try'na be perfect in every way
 I used to care about what people say
 I never questioned being on picket fences
 I'm not afraid about where I fit into the frame
 Satisfied to drive in my own lane
 So quit denying, yesterday is dying
 I'll never be, I'll never be
 All of the things that you need me to be
 You'll never see, you'll never see
 That version of me
 I'm not the girl in the white dress
 I'm not your fairytale princess
 I'm sorry, mama, that I made you cry
 Some day you'll know the reason why
 I'm not the girl in the white dress
 I'm embracing my darkness
 I'm really sorry that I let you down
 I'm still gonna make you proud
 ♪
 Close your eyes
 Why don't you try to keep an open mind?
 I hope you know how hard I really tried
 It might be a hard truth, but it's not about you
 This is mine, so don't treat me like I'm a crime
 My life, my lesson learned in time
 I don't hold it against you
 You don't have to be you
 'Cause you'll never see, you'll never see
 That version of me
 I'm not the girl in the white dress
 I'm not your fairytale princess
 I'm sorry, mama, that I made you cry
 Some day you'll know the reason why
 I'm not the girl in the white dress
 I'm embracing my darkness
 I'm really sorry that I let you down
 But I'm still gonna make you proud
