Verse 1: I always dreamed of another world. A perfect world. Utopia can't exist. In a world where I was reborn. In a world where my heart could never be torn. Wishing on a dream that can never be real. A world where I don't have my fears. I know I am just kidding myself. I can't change the world, but I wish I could. I wish for a world where my scars could go away.
Chorus: If I lived in utopia nothing would be the same. People wouldn't treat me like a game that they always win. I would wipe my fears from my mind. I'd leave them behind. I would no longer stay up out of fear. My old friends would be here. I would still be as innocent as I was before. I wouldn't feel so insecure. I'd be open. I'd unlock my doors. I'd be the girl people want from me, but in reality I can only be me. When we left you said I could be anyone I wanted to be. I said that I could be me. I just wonder what if I wasn't scarred?
Verse 2: I've lived tucked away where no one can see me. I thought I could hide from the world, but they found me. I thought everything would magically be alright. I don't believe in magic anymore. If I want to save me from being lonely I don't know what to do. You think you are helping from getting involved and making me feel even more small. I feel like just a pawn that's gone wrong. I colored outside the lines and I've been abandoned for all time for it. Loneliness is one of my many scars. I see the scar on me, but you just can't see. You can't know what I go through everyday. You can't tear me down and just say sorry. You don't know. You can't try to relate. You can't see my scars all throughout me. When you can then you'll understand.
Chorus: If I lived in utopia nothing would be the same. People wouldn't treat me like a game that they always win. I would wipe my fears from my mind. I'd leave them behind. I would no longer stay up out of fear. My old friends would be here. I would still be as innocent as I was before. I wouldn't feel so insecure. I'd be open. I'd unlock my doors. I'd be the girl people want from me, but in reality I can only be me. When we left you said I could be anyone I wanted to be. I said that I could be me. I just wonder what if I wasn't scarred?
Verse 3: Love. Just another ugly little word. Love. Just another thing to avoid. I'm too young to take such a big break. It's too soon for me. It's be over before I could count to three. My relationships usually go... One. We meet and I fall in love too soon. Already wishing I had you. Two. You see me there and you see the perfect piece for your next game. I don't wanna be the next girl to fall for it. You say nice things that simply are not true. I wish I could see right through you. Three. I'd be out before you could call me back. I wish I avoided the attack.

Songs I Wrote
PoetryHere are some songs I wrote. The ones that end in (Old Song) are ones I wrote when I was 14. They're not all that good, but I thought it'd be cool to have my old songs here alongside my new ones. I think it shows how much I've changed and improved...
