here we find a girl reversed - a girl who comes alive at night and is afraid of the lonely day     "you need to sleep," they'll say     "i need to rest," she'll say and they won't understand the difference. here we find a girl inside-out - a girl who can handle the whole world but is terrified of handling herself     her mind her worst enemy     her people her safe haven and she'll forever be searching for a home that isn't haunted by her own reflection. here we find the girl     the open ended question     the heart with the vacancy sign in neon     the bouquet of optimism put out for everyone to see here we found the girl and here we lost her     right here, i think

Girl, reversed
here we find a girl reversed - a girl who comes alive at night and is afraid of the lonely day     "you need to sleep," they'll say     "i need to rest," she'll say and they won't understand the difference. here we find a girl inside-out - a girl who can handle the whole world but is terrified of handling herself     her mind her worst enemy     her people her safe haven and she'll forever be searching for a home that isn't haunted by her own reflection. here we find the girl     the open ended question     the heart with the vacancy sign in neon     the bouquet of optimism put out for everyone to see here we found the girl and here we lost her     right here, i think
