they told her she was ugly
so she believed it
(even though she was the most beautiful girl i had ever laid
my eyes upon)
they told her she was loud
so she stopped speaking
(even though her wise words commanded my attention)
they told her she was dumb
so she stopped thinking
(even though she had the most brilliant and curious mind i
have ever encountered)
they told her she had no talent
so she stopped having fun
(even though she could light up an entire room with her
energy)
they told her she was lazy
so she stopped sleeping
(even though her life was a nightmare)
they told her she was too sad
so she faked another smile
(even though she was far from being happy)
they told her she wasn't enough
so she became nothing
(even though she was everything to me)
