There Was, There Is...

There was once a girl
Who cried every night
Who cut her wrists
Who wanted to die

There was once a girl
Who hated home
Who gave up god
Who tried to survive alone

There was once a girl
Who didn't believe
Who was consumed by hate
Who wanted to bleed

There was once that girl
But is no more
She's changed herself
For the better

Now there is a girl
Who still cries
Who doesn't cut
Who doesn't want to die

Now there is a girl
Who understands home
Who took back god
Who is not alone

Now there is a girl
Who truly believes 
Who is consumed by love
Who doesn't want to bleed

Now there is a girl
Who has a soul
Who smiles for real
Who feels loved

Now there is a girl
That has proof of god
An angel sent from above
A boy with a beautiful soul

Now there is a girl
Who has a friend
That she can rely on
Who understands

Now there is a girl
Full of love
Staying close
With her personal Angel

(To my Angel, You save me...)
