(album: MISS SICK WORLD - 2021)

I don't wanna be Miss World (Miss World)
Not in this sick world (sick world)
Where I'll have to fake tears when I'm laughing
Smile when I'm unhappy
Everybody's reaching for the crown
But I don't want it

I try to tell myself that I'm an optimist
Crying on my own, it gave me thicker skin
But really in the end it feels the opposite
Thinking all my friends, they really wore me in
Like a pair of Doc Martens

I close my eyes
And small specs of light are there
Dancing through my eyelids
Spiralling in the middle of the night
I close my eyes
And I'm who I wanna be
Wake up and they won't let me, let me

I don't wanna be Miss World (Miss World)
Not in this sick world (sick world)
Where I'll have to fake tears when I'm laughing
Smile when I'm unhappy
Everybody clapping when I'm down
Don't need to be Miss World (Miss World)
No, not in this sick world (sick world)
Where I gotta pretend that I got this
When I've fucking lost it
Everybody's reaching for the crown
But I don't want it

Everything is sunshine and daffodils
They say there is a way if I have got the will
But I don't want to fit in if I have to be a clone
No, I don't want to fit in at all

I close my eyes
And small specs of light are there
Dancing through my eyelids
Spiralling in the middle of the night
I close my eyes and I'm who I wanna be
Wake up and they won't let me, let me

I don't wanna be Miss World (Miss World)
Not in this sick world (sick world)
Where I'll have to fake tears when I'm laughing
Smile when I'm unhappy
Everybody clapping when I'm down
Don't need to be Miss World (Miss World)
No, not in this sick world (sick world)
Where I gotta pretend that I got this
When I've fucking lost it
Everybody's reaching for the crown
But I don't want it
