Remember That Girl?

Remember that girl, so innocent and sweet?

   Who lived in a fantasy and believed in dreams?

That girl who would laugh and smile just for fun?

   From monsters and terrors she never had to run?

That girl who let her imagination run free?

   Unafraid to be all that she could be?

That girl that would never submit to the dark?

   With so much spirit and so much heart?

That girl who would stand up for what was right?

   Who was unafraid to live and enjoy her life?

That girl whose eyes were lovely and bright?

   Who believed the only limit was the sky?

Well…

She's gone now and she's been replaced

   That sweet little girl has been erased

The strange girl in her place is cold and dark

   Ruined by a tattered and broken heart

She's made so many mistakes and holds so much regret

   How she became such a failure, she'll never get

She hides from the world, timid and shy

   Hiding her face and the tears she cries

She sits alone grieving her lost and innocent past

   She took a wrong turn and ended up on a barren path

She wanted to turn back and recover

   But she was stuck and had to suffer

Ever since she broke, she's tried to hide the misery

   But sometimes it's hard… and I know because this girl is me
