- "Show & Tell." Whether you see the narrator as a bullied schollgirl, or as a deadbeat woman in abusive relationship, or as a celebrity hounded by insensitive paparazzi, you can hear how her voice breaks when she says:You pull me by my hair, so I don't go nowhere
Tell me you love me, but you treat me like I'm never there
You say the cruelest words and—yes—they break my heart
'Cause, I'm over here working my ass off
Why is it so hard to see? (Why?)
If I cut myself, I would bleed (Kill me)
I'm just like you, you're like me
Imperfect and human, are we? - "Nurse's Office" is the only place Cry Baby feels safe from the students and teachers who bully her. To anyone who ever been bullied this song may hit too close to home.
- "High School Sweethearts". Sure, she is an Ax-Crazy Yandere who threatens the subject of the song with violence... and also a lonely, broken girl who wants to be accepted and desperately needs someone to love her. And with how crazy she is, she'll probably never get it.
- "Recess" has very accurate description of anhedonia: everything is apparently going well fine... but she finds no pleasure in it; she can't even relax.Sittin' in my room, looking at all I've done
Everything I wanted has come to fruition
I should be happy but I can't get out my bed
Stressin' 'bout the voices screamin' inside my head
[...]
Where is my time?
Gone in my mind
Gone, I can't find
Euphoria
