The Girl
She's in the corner with a smile in her eyes
Little do people know, it’s a fake try
She wears it everyday, along with her makeup and perfume
But nobody seems to know what goes on in her room
She cries sorrow into her pillows, she cuts herself
Some nights she might even starve herself
She’s depressed and that’s a shame
She consumes most of her time thinking about her left timeframe
A perfect portrait she paints, all in red
Because blue is not what society wants, it’s red instead
Yes, she was flawed and she knew
She didn't realize, but society wasn't near perfection too
Abundance of years passed before her eyes
Until she realized that she's not worth the many tries
The tries of fitting in to society’s wishes to acquire some type of belonging
Defeated, every time she attempts fulfilling her genuine longing
Oh think about her future, was such a promising one
Instantly disappearing with the trigger of a wicked gun
That was two years ago today
Sadly, society still hasn't seemed to learn the way
And allow for everyone to be unique
Don’t be too unrelenting and harsh to critique
Change the world, starting this very day
Maybe we can all love one another, with our differences along the way
