On the outside you see a girl
A great leader
And excellent talker and
A happy soul

But on the inside that’s all lies
She doesn’t know how to live
Or breathe she doesn’t know what right from wrong or how to prove that she can be strong

She doesn’t know what she wants and she’s confusing everything with the fantasy of a world she wants
She knows she cant have it yet she is so desperate for it
For something that’s not real and only there for a short amount of time

Yet we are all still standing by
To help her and give her a hand
But she turned around and just runs away again
Runs away from her pain and sorrow for some thing she just can’t find in the real world each day
