Life Goes On

A little girl With a grown up mind She always felt Like she was left behind In a world so broad She was all alone The last place to go Was her broken home She couldn't love She couldn't cry All she could do Was stare at the sky She would wish Every single day That someone would come And take the pain away The girl grew up With a very hard life And now she's gonna be Someone's wife She can't go on Something's not there She doesn't want to live Forever in fear That sad little girl Is the only thing in her mind As she thinks again About being left behind A beautiful girl So ugly inside Every one seen her strength Though all she did was hide Hide from her fear Hide from her past Hide from the world She always came last She found the missing piece But couldn't put it into place There was one last thing She needed to face There was a woman To whom she must speak But the thought of that talk Made her weak How to tell her Words of hate Words of resentment The girl is irate The woman ran away Never even looking back Not caring what she left behind All she wanted was more crack The woman destroyed her life And pulled the world down too That girl is me And that woman is you
