To Realize,

I am a girl in which the unknown intrigues, yet who’s afraid of not knowing.
I wonder what the future holds
I hear the sounds of chance and change approaching
I see my past and its memories fading fast
I want to know what I’m getting myself into
I am a girl in which the unknown intrigues, yet who’s afraid of not knowing

I pretend to be stronger than I am
I feel like I’m in over my head
I touch my foot to the pedal
I worry about not going far
I cry because I’m scared of what’s to come
I am a girl in which the unknown intrigues, yet who’s afraid of not knowing

I understand that this is life
I say what people want to hear
I dream of just getting by
I try to figure things out for myself
I hope I’m not the only one
I am a girl in which the unknown intrigues, yet who’s afraid of not knowing
