She was born a pleasant soul Feeble though, body type like needle nose Plyers, the desire in her eyes was like fire I admired the disguise she was different Her teddy bear brown eyes showed all the sad lies She was trying to hide in the back of her dads ride Crying to confide, but he always looked the other way Trying to decide what to say was his alibi She was a good girl growing up giving life a chance But her mother passed and her plans would unravel fast Travel dad blazing trails Keeping bills paid All the hours worked, hurt in a real way Raised by a sitter with a boyfriend who's the devil Who would always sneak over and flexed ethics at a lower level She was only ten when she first met him wish she never did it was something she regretted When the babysitter would step out of the room A dance with the devil would be forced too soon She's a kid, you're a man, well ah, not really You're a shell of a man, with a hell of a plan, You'll ruin this girls life with those devilish hands And he did, he did Now the smile on this little girls faced disappeared Used to be go lucky, now lived in fear Used be so happy, now lived in tears Used to be, just used to be Now walks around, so aimlessly That dark depression saying stay with me And she listens, can't blame the victim As the tear drop glistens down her cheek Can't speak Can't speak And as the years past, it was still vivid Her mind constantly racing a mile a minute She took her damaged life and she tried to live it It was too much to take Everyday, too much to fake Dad tried too much, too late Now the self hate, self pity, self pain Made it hard to take selfie like herself again Made it hard to find a friend like a real friend She was wondering if she'd ever feel again Feeling boxed in like a meal plan She was doing her best to console with the past But the pain in her chest was too much to surpass So she tips up her glass, drowns in a flask Says if I never quit won't have to relapse Her pain was like an empty garden ready for the flowers But the rain wouldn't fall and the sunshine scattered Hopeless, she tried to date Figured it would bring her mind out this constant daze Met a friend through friend and at first it was great Ate lunch, shared laughs, she wasn't feelin' pain His name was Mike, and he was in the right When he went in for a kiss, but she gave him a bite She was scared, nervous, impaired by the past She Ran away fast, hasn't talked to Mike since She kept on thinking that he wouldn't understand What she needed now more than ever was her mother's hand She was a plane crash on an island lost But the flashbacks were like twice as rough But just then when she thought that she was see through She opened up IG saw hashtag me too Regrew, it was a process but now she knew Others out there suffer like she do Regrouped, found power in the people and Like the birds in the fields from the movie Forrest Gump she flew Man she flew Married Mike, it was magical night, right Had two kids and ate dinners by candlelight every night Every story has a different author Not every pretty book gets to prosper If you judge it by it's cover, it may never be discovered I pray and hope all who suffer find a way to conquer
