the body guard


Outside lives a girl with a smile that will brighten up any room

yet inside there is a girl who is falling apart

outside lives a girl with eyes full of mystery and joy

yet inside the girl is shedding tears

outside lives a girl with a laugh that is contagious 

yet inside the girl is full of insecurities 

outside lives a girl who is fearless and tough

yet inside the girl hides the weakness

outside lives a girl full of life

yet inside the girl she just wants to end this pain

What you see on the outside is my personal bodyguard

what hides underneath, you cant begin to imagine.
