Invisible Girl
She plays a twisted game
Though she knows she'll never win
Just trying to find her place
But always hitting a dead end
Not sure where to turn
Without getting burned
She puts on a smile for the world
Happy and carefree
Leaving no one to guess
She doesn't believe
She's worth anything at all
So she falls apart in silence
Letting no one in
Her scars telling the story she'll
never give
It's not attention she seeks
Just wanting the loneliness to end
Her smile fades
She wastes away
Not wanting to face another day
Hating herself but she doesn't know
How important she really is
always there for everyone else
Putting them above herself
Now it's her turn to cry for help
Will you listen
Or remain wrapped up in yourself?
