Dreamer (Little Girl Lost)

Depression is over rated, and I don’t prefer the things I have. So why are all the girls claiming to hurt, and cry out that they are sad. Did they touch the hand of death, feel love break away. Did they ever run away from sub ordinance, and cry angry tears each day? Dreamer, you’re a little girl lost. Dreamer, it’s safe to wipe away the frost. The cold that keeps your heart from loving, the pain that keeps the happiness from coming…dreamer, you don’t have to be lost anymore. Those who are hurting, they keep it to themselves. They cry into their pillows, then put their feelings on a shelf. Maybe write it in a journal, but never mutter the threats to another ear. They know that hurting and feeling isn’t accepted in places like here. Dreamer, you’re a little girl lost. Dreamer, it’s safe to wipe away the frost. The cold that keeps your heart from loving, the pain that keeps the happiness from coming…dreamer, you don’t have to be lost anymore. I hear you crying in every tear that falls from my face. You don’t have to say a word or hurt yourself in other ways. I know you feel, and loved and lost, before the age of seventeen. Take time to remember some smile that came in the times that were between. There’s life, there’s love, there’s hope and happiness waiting beyond that door. Only leave when you know it’s right, and you know you cant take anymore. Dreamer, you’re a little girl lost. Dreamer, it’s safe to wipe away the frost. The cold that keeps your heart from loving, the pain that keeps the happiness from coming…dreamer, you don’t have to be lost anymore.
