Normal Girl
Tell me did it hurt to think,
We pushed a girl who was on the brink.
She stood on the edge with her hair in the in the wind,
She Looked down at the water and confessed her sins,
The face of the cliff so jagged and rough,
A normal girl who never felt good enough,
Why did the world weigh so heavily on the shoulders of the girl who was to weak to stand,
she looked at the crashing waves below, her life slipping from her hands.
She wasn't suicidal she just felt the time was right,
She felt the rocks beneath her feet disapear as she took flight,
She swore she was flying the air was wet and freezing cold,
As she plummeted towards the water, Her hand no longer yours to hold,
She felt the waves wash over her.. crushing her against the rocks,
She took the water into her lungs, She'd given life one final shot.
As her hair swayed around and moved with each wave,
Her body rocked lifeless, death had been sweet Her debt repaid..
The water seemed ruthless pale skin now tattered and bruised
A normal girl who felt worthless, a normal girl who felt used...
