Brand New Me

Can you see me now?
I'm a brand new girl you see.
yes, i bet you remember the times i told you i hated you
but can you see this?
and how I'm trying so hard for everyone to see me?
I'm happy, I'm smiling

cant you see this?
before you start the name calling, rumors and lies
i want ya'll to see that I'm not the same
dark dying hungry girl ya'll used to see and know.

i love the life that I've been living these last few months.
the ones after i tried to take my old life.
i fall asleep not having to cry,
i breathe each breath i take without struggling.
and i dint need to take things i think will make me happy.

think of me as i was before and try to destroy me
with words you think will hurt,
or grow up and see I'm a brand new girl
whose happy to be alive and get to know me.
