An Empty Shell

I’ve got nobody to blame;
I’m the fool who dug this hole
and got myself stuck inside
when I’ll get out, who knows?

I keep pretending to be
someone I thought I could make myself into
I thought I would be happy by default
but I just feel insincere

I stare into the mirror
and I don’t recognize me anymore
that girl staring back at me
is not the woman that I wanted to be
she’s an empty shell no one has a use for
