What Was She Thinking

Behind the face of a young girl Is a life she must suffer to be known All those nights of her parents fighting All those times she would be beaten for no reason What was she thinking The time people talk about how big she is Or how much she eats at lunch What was she thinking All those times her mom pushed her aside To help those around her Even after what they did What was she thinking The times where she was being all she could be And they just said great & went on with their lives What was she thinking All those times she wanted to leave Or grab a knife and cut herself limb from limb What was she thinking She was thinking that she would finally get some attention And be really seen for the first time in her life
