I miss being the girl
The girl who had your heart
No *******, straight love from the start
No tears, just smiles, but now I’m torn apart
Because you have to have it your way
You never listened to what I had to say
You pushed me away, you made me feel betrayed
Now I’m just that girl
That girl who will never mean the same
That girl you wish you never claimed
That girl you accuse of why you feel ashamed to love again
I had to pick myself up and lift up my own chin
I had to tell myself lies to **** the pain within
I had to force my depressed lips to put on a fake grin
Just because I’ll never be the girl
Someone will come along and take that place
I hope when you look at her you see my face
And I hope you embrace every memory she has replaced
I hope you feel better now that she has defaced me
I miss being the girl
No pain, just love
The girl
The one you held above
No matter how hard I pushed and shoved
The girl
The one you were proud to say you loved
Now I’m just *that girl
