[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
