Used to be

I used to be the girl,
With that glowing smile on her face.
I used to be the girl that fit in,
With anyone, at any time, any place.

I used to have all the answers,
For every problem anyone had.
I used to be the ‘popular’ one,
I made sour, sweet, make good out of bad.

I used to be the girl,
With those enticing, sparkly eyes.
I used to be the one that never failed,
Because I would always continue to try.

I used to be the girl,
With such a beautiful heart.
I used to be the best friend,
That was there at the end and the start.

I used to be the girl,
So happy and free to live.
I used to be the girl,
With so much love to give.

I used to be the girl,
Without problems, without a care.
I used to be the girl,
That would make every guy stare.

Now I’m the girl,
With a broken smile.
Now I’m the girl,
Crying like a child.

Now I’m the girl,
Drowning in all the lies.
Now I’m the girl,
That at night prays she dies.

Now I’m the girl,
Whose eyes are so cold.
Now I’m the girl,
Who feels sick of being told.

Now I’m the girl,
With the painful life.
Now I’m the girl,
Who’s best friend is a knife.

Now I’m the girl,
Lost in all the sorrow.
Now I’m the girl,
Her biggest fear is tomorrow.
