As time passes new thoughts form in my head
what and who I once was is now dead
I try to change but I am mislead
By the words and actions people do and say
yet I still give them my heart knowing it would get played
I don\'t understand why I still chose to stay
I don\'t understand why I keep giving my heart away
What once was a glowing heart
is now broken and falling apart
because of the cruel things people chose to say
and because I took in all in, it the reason I am now this way
I can\'t keep up this act of perfection
I see it\'s all a lie when I look at my reflection
it hurts to force a smile and fight back tears
but I guess I have gotten used to it from all of these years
I try to be strong and who you want me to be
but I am not the strong little girl that you expect to see
it\'s all a lie I have depicted in your head
because the strong fighting me is almost dead
