She wants...


She wants to feel pretty and break the mold

but society tells her to do what's told

She wants to be happy everyday

but everyone says there's a price to pay

She wants to go back to her younger days

back when things were simply not crazed

She wants to stop crying and start giving

She wants to stop dying and start living

She wants to know how to feel again

she wants to know where to begin

She wants to be able to use immagination

She wants to join a new generation
