This girl in the picture,
I hardly know
This girl in the picture
feels all alone

Although she shows
a smile on her face
That mask she wears
hides an inner dark place

She longs for a sign,
that maybe she’s wanted,
that maybe her life is...
somewhat important

She turns in toward herself
and cries in her corner
She does not want
this life she’s been ordered

So who is this girl,
and where will she go?
What will she accomplish,
when her potential is unknown?

Maybe one day
she will break free

Maybe one day
she will see...

She will see that she’s perfect
She will see that she’s wanted
The girl in the picture
will see she’s
Important
