Fighter
Tears run down her face
She’s crying for help, but no one hears
She starts running like it’s a race
Been fighting these bullies off for years
They knock her down
And call her names
They spread rumors all through town
And laugh like it’s all a game
She’s miserable at school and miserable at home
She’s running with nowhere to go
In a sea of people, but she’s all alone
She takes their words with a heavy blow
And yet she stands,
Stronger than all those who mock her,
She covers her heart with her hands
And turns to fight the war that’s against her
