Lyrics

POPULARITY CONTEST
Got me tweeting with the rest
I have to fight for your caress
Ultimately I am so stressed
Need this weight up off my chest
It's like I'm dying to impress

Popularity contest
Still I love you to the core
The part that chose me long ago
This thing is really complex
Got me running for the door
But your reach won,t let me go

VRS 1:
If this is it,then I,m so through
From the start you acted like I was enough for you
Seems I,m not quite what,your'e use to
Though I've worked every angle
Changed my attitude
When we first met was on MySpace
Couldn't wait to have that We time Face to face
Later to find out,I wasn't the only one
You promise the world to almost anyone

PRE HOOK:
What does a girl have to do
Change my appearance as proof/Post a new vid on Youtube
Does integrity not matter to you?
Oh I Lay...my heart and soul on the line
But your actions remind each time
(I'm in a)...

CHO:
POPULARITY CONTEST
That has me tweeting with the rest
I have to fight for your caress
Ultimately I am so stressed
Need this weight up off my chest
It's like I'm dying to impress

Popularity contest
Still I love you to the core
The part that chose me long ago
This thing is really complex
Got me running for the door
But your reach won't let me go

VRS
Thought that I could,live without you
But common sense tells me that I can't go around truth
We're connected whether I want to
But I'm so tired with no channel left to turn to
So should I stay or should I go
Give all the rest the space to take a little more?
I hope and pray,one day you'll be true
And To me he'll give the strength to save my love for you

PRE HOOK:
Can't really go on this way
Won't reinvent me each day
Just so that I'll hear you say..This is my time/(You're all mine)
What is the point if I'll be
One in millions up on your FB
I,m fighting for You to see Me
(I'm in your)

CHO:

That has me tweeting with the rest

Still I love you to the core
The part that chose me long ago
This thing is really complex
Got me running for the door
But your reach won't let me go
