This is the story of a little girl Who no longer loved herself Despite trying again and again But she was tired (trying took a lot of energy, you know) This is the story of a little girl Who wanted so desperately to be wanted She demanded others attention But she never could get their love (love is a hard thing to give, you know) This is the story of a little girl Who was exhausted, so very exhausted Of always coming in last That she gave up on first (first was a hard thing to achieve, you know) This is the story of a little girl Who was so afraid of not capturing the moment Not preserving that exact moment That she forgot to live in it (living is hard you know) This is the story of a little girl So afraid of the problems in front of her That she never saw Depression sneaking up behind her (it strangled her, you know)
