I always stood up for you when people would decry

You made me believe you were different than most guys

How could I have been so stupid to believe in all your lies

You must of always been in disguise because I realized

I could never get past those beautiful brown eyes

After an outburst of cries and giving you a number of tries

You didn’t even have the decency to say goodbye

You have really became something I despise

As I lay my head on my pillow

I look outside my bedroom window

I see the slow falling snow

Gently drifting to the ground below

Covering the grass and trees

That once used to be so evergreen

Untouched and pristine

Making all that is different the same

What a beautiful scene it became

I know you think I’m being mean
But trust me I know what it was like being a teen

I’m just trying to watch out for you
I don’t want people to take advantage of you

I know you want to grow up and leave
But that’s just you being naive

I don’t want you to regret not getting to be a kid
Cause that’s exactly what I did

I know you’re trying to fit in
But just try to be more comfortable in your own skin

Life’s not all about how you look and what you wear
Materialistic things will get you nowhere

I’m writing you this to show you how much I care
If you need me I’m always there, I swear

God
I look to the sky and wonder if you are there

Listening to my prayers of despairs

I’m so very tired of being on the fence

Dear lord, sometimes it just doesn’t make sense

I’m suppose to believe in something I cannot see

I wish you could give me a sign and convince me

Instead of leaving me with this uncertainty

But maybe I just need to wait more patiently

Who knows you might strangely suprise me

And end up guiding me along the way

I pray, please sway me somehow and someday

These boys are all the same
All they do is wanna play childish games
Always saying things that are untrue
Just to get a chance to be with you

It won’t be too long before he calls you his girl
And makes you feel like you’re his world
But get ready for a swirl

Your feelings have deepen for him
But now he’s starting to play with your emotions
He says he wants to keep his options open

Before you know it he’s gone
Making you think you did something wrong
But all along it was he that led you on

These boys are all the same
All they do is wanna play childish games
Always saying things that are untrue
Just to get a chance to be with you

These green eyes hide in disguise
Trying not to let out agonising cries

Tearing at the seams
Tired of hearing painful screams

The light feels so close
But yet this tunnel seems so long

I feel as if I am drifting away
I pray hopefully someday I find my way

Mirror, mirror

I hate this person staring back at me
This is not the person I used to be

I’m hating my reflection
I wish I could see perfection

Mirror, mirror

I hate applying my mask
Hiding my flaws with makeup has become an everyday task

I hate feeling so fake
I think I just might break
