What She Told Me-

She was a quite girl,

Never saying anything too much.

She never wanted to give herself away,

Never wanted to be hurt;

She was the type with real eyes

That realized real lies.

She said,

People think I'm strong -

Anyone can be strong as long as they know

What it feels to be weak.

I keep my guard up,

But, you would too if you’ve known what it really means

To cry yourself to sleep.

Damaged people are the dangerous ones,

Because, boy, they know how to survive.

Some people think all you need is

Ignorance and confidence.

People expect me to have so little to say.

But if you gave me a chance,

I’d turn it all around, I'd speak the world's words,

And sing the bird's songs.

Then she stopped, smiled a little and said,

But I'm not that girl anymore.

I'm right where I belong,

In this sad, sad song.

I wasted my wish

On people that will never care.

A tear ran down her cheeks as she continued,

Running only far enough for people to miss you

Never works,

And putting up walls to see who cares enough

To jump over them,

Will only let you down.

You have no idea

About the pain someone’s going through,

And you’ll never leave where you are

Unless you decided where you want to be.
