There goes the bell, I guess the day’s about to start
I’d better hurry, did I do my work?
There was a chart for English that I had to do
Equations I don’t know the answer to
But I still wear a smile, playing the part
As the golden child, I’m always prepared
I’m not wild, in fact I’m a bit scared
I’m burning myself out and finding it
Hard to be passionate
But the golden child wears a mask
And no one ever cared
And no one ever cared
Say no to friends, shut myself off and work
If no one knows I’m here, then no one can be a jerk
I’ve suffered for too much time now
And oh, somehow
I still pretend I’m alright and give them a smirk
As the golden child, I’m always prepared
I’m not wild, in fact I’m a bit scared
I’m burning myself out and finding it
Hard to be passionate
But the golden child wears a mask
And no one ever cared
And no one ever cared
And no one ever cared
And no one ever cared
My problems internalized ’cause I have to keep this face
Seeming like I’m perfect when I’m really a disgrace
Throwing everyone away
Because I know that if they stay
I could get hurt again and there won’t be anything to save
As the golden child, I’m always prepared
I’m not wild, in fact I’m a bit scared
I’m burning myself out and finding it
Hard to be passionate
But the golden child wears a mask
But someone out there cares
I don’t know who or where
But someone out there cares
‘Cause someone has to care
Please won’t someone care?
