She is the girl in the corner with her headphones in

As soon as she is alone, she starts to sin

No one sees her pain; they see her smile

It becomes to much to bear after awhile

She sits in class, all alone

No one thinks to throw her a bone

They laugh at her, they point too

No one stops to think what she’s been through

So she goes home, tears alight

Her face is wet; her eyes are bright

She takes out the blades, and just lets go

What will happen next, she doesn’t know

She doesn’t die that day, though she tries

No one is awake as she cries

She sits in a ball on the floor

It seems too hard to go on anymore

She is the girl in the corner with her headphones in

As soon as she is alone, she starts to sin

No one sees her pain; they see her smile

It becomes to much to bear after awhile

The scars on her wrists, those she hides

Nobody sees them, because nobody tries

No one is there for her, day after day

She is truly alone, much to her dismay

Once upon a time, she was kind

She was happy too, you’ll be surprised to find

Then her friends turned on her, they watched her pain

The rip in her heart became a stain

Cruel things were whispered, and rumors spread

She went home each day; tears were shed

Nothing could really drown out her mind

Music was an escape, the closest she could find

No one wants her; they let her be alone

They don’t know she was so depression prone

She sits in the corner, and there she writes

About another girl, with a better life

She is the girl in corner with her headphones in

As soon as she’s alone, she starts to sin

No one sees her pain; they see her smile

It becomes too much to bear, after awhile

One day she decides that it is time

She has nothing left, no reason to shine

The house is empty once again

So she gets out some paper and a pen

She decides that she’ll leave a note

No one cares to read it, but she can hope

It is those words that the whole town read

Their hearts fill with sorrow as they see what she said

I am the girl in the corner with my headphones in

As soon as I’m alone, I start to sin

No one sees my pain; they see my smile

It became too much to bear, after a while.

You don’t understand me, but you judge

I don’t know why you have such a grudge

You don’t know my story; you know my face

Well, here is a change of pace.

They find her later, bathed in red

Rushing her to the help, but she is dead.

They all weep as they realize the signs

And they decide this will be the last time.

Now they are kinder; they care more

They understand the pain that we all endure

It’s very tragic, that to finally see

A life had to be taken, one less hero to be.

She was the girl in the corner her headphones in

As soon as she was alone, she’d start to sin

No one saw her pain; they saw her smile

It became to much to bear after awhile.
