My little brunette
I would like to always be there for you
To be a shoulder to cry on
Someone you can talk to
Someone who will understand your pain
She tore you down
She took your light
And now I'm going to give it back
Give you back your light
Help you stand
And realise that you are better
Then she told you, you were
I would like to take away your memories of her
To take away all the pain she caused you
Oh my little Brunette
I would like to shelter you from her cold grasp
She left you empty
She left you feeling not good enough
She left you alone
Thinking you did something wrong
But she was wrong
In all possible ways
She tore you down
To bring herself up
You were always enough
But she didn't want you to know that
She thought if she could take your light
She would shine
What she didn't know
My little Brunette
Is that you are stronger than her
You are greater than she could ever dream of being
Even though you still feel the pain
You shine bright
Even though she brought you down
You keep rising higher
She left you empty
She left you feeling not good enough
She left you alone
Thinking you did something wrong
Oh my little Brunette
I'm not always there for you
I wish I could be
But sometimes I can't get to you
I can't say the words you so desperately need
Oh my little Brunette
I wish I could
With one word
Banish her and her influence
Take away all those horrid thoughts
She put in your head
But I don't have that power
I can't take it all away
I can't erase her
But you don't need me
She may have left you struggling to breathe
Fighting back those daggers she threw at you
But who you became,
Is beautiful
A flower rising from the rubble
Changing the world, improving it
Blessing those around you,
One day at a time
Thank you my little Brunette
For letting me in to see the truth
She left you empty
She left you feeling not good enough
She left you alone
Thinking you did something wrong
I'm sorry
I couldn't save you from her cold grasp
I promise,
I will do everything I can to help you heal
To help you see the light you shine
My little Brunette
I'm sorry I wasn't there for you sooner
