Wheres the butterflies and rainbows?


Wheres the butterflies and rainbows?

The urge to cut builds up each night 

And it just doesn't feel right 

Everything she could ever want but the darkness around her is like a depressing haunt 

The world isn't all happiness and joy 

Everyone treats her like a toy 

And instead of bright beautiful butterflies 

Theres the insecurities that whisper dark little lies 

Or the rainbows that fade away leaving it to look so great 

The world is dark and sad 

And she learned that lesson when she lost her dad
