her


I used to be that girl Don't you know the one The switch in her walk The glint in her eyes The giggle of surprise Don't you know that girl I used to be Hiding behind a wall of uncertanty Lost in a dream Caught in a daze The girl I used to be has made a mockery of me. Uncomprehensive Unsupportive And discontented was she But not me No longer me For I finally see Brillance is beauty Comprehending is conductive And dumbing it down Would simple make a fool of me Its time to step out of the shadows Back up for I was tettering off the edge Stand away from status quote Turn away from the mirror Let it shatter with the past And simply trully rightfully be me.
