[Verse 1]

I'm trying to be a good girl

Didn't mean to fake it

Getting used to saying, "I'm okay"

And yellin' to myself, "Don't push me away"

[Chorus]

I'm on the borderline, I'm on the borderline

I'm a good girl, yeah, I'm a good girl, yeah

I'm on the borderline, I'm on the borderline

Please be on my side, please be on my side

[Post-Chorus]

(Oh-oh, oh-oh)

(Oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh)

[Verse 2]

I got too hyped, unstable eyes

Hands, hair, and words are all over the place

Feels like a bird is living in my head

Please don't piss me off (Oh, no)

[Pre-Chorus]

I shouldn't have said that

Because I'm a good girl, don't spill it out

[Chorus]

I'm on the borderline, I'm on the borderline

I'm a good girl, yeah, I'm a good girl, yeah

I'm on the borderline, I'm on the borderline

Please be on my side, please be on my side

[Bridge]

It's been years takin' Xanax and I got so much better

Why people keep sayin' "What's wrong with her?"

Digging myself deeper and deeper, I see what I rejected to see in the past

(Pills, bloods, illness, abandoned) Well, okay, better be covered

I gotta be lookin' vivid and classy

[Chorus]

I'm on the borderline, I'm on the borderline

I'm a good girl, yeah, I'm a good girl, yeah

I'm on the borderline, I'm on the borderline

Please be on my side, please be on my side

[Outro]

Don't put me in a bad light

'Til I'm in the limelight

Don't put me in a bad light

'Til I'm in the limelight
