I once knew this girl
who every day and any
day all it brought
was more misery
she'd walk down the halls
her head hung low
and her eyes would fall
while other girls flowed
she'd try to fix herself
yet felt like she couldn't with no help
while others stared
and wondered why
she never talked
or even said hi
but as she got older you see
things stared to change
and as she changed
on her very own
the more she smiled
and laughed to know
and know she's gone
with me in her place
happy
carefree
and never weak
so now i wake up in the morning
smile in the mirror
say hi to everyone i know
which i friends with most
but now i'm stable
and i'm free
and from now
and always
i'll always be me
