a little lost girl
alone and afraid in the dark
her mind starts to whirl
everything is coming apart
looking through the devil's eyes
seeing herself inferior
those who claim otherwise are denied
she doesn't want them near to her
she pushes them away
she screams and yells to let her be
she forces loved ones not to stay
but i will not yield to her pleas
for the first time her crys fall on deaf ears
i have seen what she is, seen what is really there
hatred grown from her fear
that someone should actually care
she cannot stand the thought
of someone getting close
all her life she has fought
to avoid this the most
she tries to shut me out
i will not succomb to her demands
the time has come for me to shout
the time has come to take a stand
i say that i've been hurt before
i ask her to let me in
i too have been down on the floor
in life there is no way to win
being alone in life
with no shoulder to cry on
wether hard as steel, or sharp as a knife
you're still that little lost girl
but now you have a friend to lean upon
back
