Perfidious critic Lyrics by Catherine tu

2024

I silence my phone, throw it across my bedroom
Don't wanna see the altruistic people better than me
Another item to their list of achievements
Under my mental tab of them
"Failure" she screams
As she claws at the seams
Of the new skin growing from old scars
Why can't you be
More like what others see
When they assume that you're flawless like them
I'm my own perfidious critic
I mask my jealousy with my counterfeit praise
To hide the hysteria building up under my gaze
Sometimes a little white lie is the perfect disguise to hide the
Self-annihilation eating me up inside
"Failure" she screams
As she claws at the seams
Of the new skin growing from old scars
Why can't you be
More like what others see
When they assume that you're flawless like them
I'm my own perfidious critic
There's no manual for fixing a nervous wreck
There's no key for the cage the heart's trapped in
You're the one slowly stabbing the knife into yourself
"Failure" she screams
As she claws at the seams
Of the new skin growing from old scars
Why can't you be
More like what others see
When they assume that you're flawless like them
I'm my own perfidious critic
I'm my own perfidious critic
