seen as the girl who has it all
but really one who is about to fall
one glance and you would think
that her world is painted pink
under the fake smile and make up
are the reasons she is covered up
too many scars that run deep
false hope playing hide and seek
carefully constructed walls built strong
to protect the girl who has done no wrong
caught in a fight that pulls her apart
stuck in a world that only seems tart
this is the battle that she fights
outnumbered every day and night
crumbling castles and melting crowns
broken promises and barren towns
a shooting star that lost it’s way
there are no heros coming today
feeling alone in a crowded room
is this life endless doom?
yesterday left with great speed
tomorrow is never guaranteed
she’s trapped in a web of another’s lies
and all that’s left to do is try
being told to reach for the light
but wondering if it’s worth the fight
walking through life scared and alone
like a princess who got kicked off her throne
at night in her bed, sleep does not come
the pain of her dreams are much too strong
silence chokes words wished to be said
thoughts building pressure in her head
sweet candy lost its taste
each day is another challenge to face
it could get better or much worse
and that is the truth to this terrible curse
one thing that she has left
is a pounding heart in her chest
as long as her heart continues to go,
this is her fight and this she knows
