That Girl Is Me (this is my song, I wrote it myself, do not steal)

Verse 1:
I've been left here to die
To hang dry
And I'm wondering why
I'm so surprised
It was bound to happen some time
It's been way too long since I was happy
My scars haven't healed
No big deal
That's the way I feel
But none of it feels real
I'm waiting for the day
I get to say
I'm okay
And mean the words that come your way
And feel as bright as a sun ray
But that'll never happen
Because I don't have to imagine
That there's no compassion
For me cuz I'm crashin
Bursting into flames is the only safe reaction

Bridge:
Having no one, while having someone
It's just too much to handle
What do you see
When you look at me

Chorus:
Cuz I see a girl that's lost her way
A girl that used to be okay
A girl that laughs everyday
But it's all fake
People say that she's pretty
She says thanks, but she doesn't believe
That she's worth more than a penny
And I wonder why no one can see
That that girl is me

Verse 2:
With friends, I'm smiling, having a good time
But in my eyes
I know they're only lies
All the smiles
None of them are worthwhile
Walking home I hold back the tears
That feel like they've been there for years
All my fears
Coming true with pain so severe
Wanting to be anywhere but here

Bridge:
Wish I could run away
My everything's gone astray
What do they see
When they look at me

Chorus:
Cuz I see a girl that's lost her way
A girl that used to be okay
A girl that laughs every day
But it's all fake
People say that she's pretty
She says thanks, but she doesn't believe
That she's worth more than a penny
And I wish someone would see
That that girl is me

Hook:
When did life decide to kill me but let me breathe
I'm constantly wondering, how am I perceived
Trying to look forward, but I'm always being dragged back
To my closed door, the cold tile floor and a panic attack
Wishing I could remain untouched, unscathed and unbroken
To all words, no matter in which way they're spoken
Wanting to be strong the way I've been taught
Scars are forever, trust is not

Bridge:
How do I go up against the whole world
I was once strong, now I'm just a little broken girl
What can you see
When you look at me

Chorus:
Cuz I see a girl that's lost her way
A girl that used to be okay
A girl that laughs every day
But it's all fake
People say that she's pretty
She says thanks, but she doesn't believe
That she's worth more than a penny
And I wonder why no one can see
That that girl is me

Post-chrous:
As I look in the mirror
I see everything much clearer
I see my soul, it's nearer
Angels whispering please free her
I lie in bed awake
Now the pain's too much to take
I'm now yours to break
I'm ending it all I say
My heart's as loud as thunder
I write a few last words of wonder
And now here I lay
Six feet under
