"prom dress" lyrics

I'm nearing the end
Of my fourth year
I feel like I've been lacking
Crying too many tears
Everyone seemed to say it was so great
But did I miss out
Was it a huge mistake?

I can't help the fact I like to be alone
It might sound kinda sad
But that's just what I seem to know
I tend to handle things
Usually by myself
And I can't ever seem to try and ask for help

I'm sittin' here
Crying in my prom dress
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Make-up is running down
Feelings are all around
How did I get here
I need to know-oh-oh

I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Thought I'd get to them
But no I didn't
I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
But now I'm sittin' on the floor
And all I wanna do is run

I keep collections of masks upon my wall
To try and stop myself from revealing it all
Affecting others is the last thing I would do
I keep to myself though I want to break through
I hold so many small regrets
And what ifs down inside my head
Some confidence it couldn't hurt me
My demeanor is often misread

I'm sittin' here
Crying in my prom dress
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Make-up is running down
Feelings are all around
How did I get here
I need to know-oh-oh

I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Thought I'd get to them
But no I didn't
I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
But now I'm sittin' on the floor
And all I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run...
All I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run

I'm sittin' here
Crying in my prom dress
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Make-up is running down
Feelings are all around
How did I get here
I need to know-oh-oh

I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Thought I'd get to them
But no I didn't

I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
But now I'm sittin' on the floor
And all I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run
