There once was a girl
With a heart so clean
She smiled and laughed
Always carefree
Then something happened
And the little girl broke
When she tried to smile
Instead she choked
Into darkness
The little girl fled
There she screamed and
Scratched and bled
She no longer cared
What others thought
She was always angry
At the world she fought
She started lying
Said she was fine
But on her wrist
Appeared beautiful lies
She started longing
To take out her knife
Soon stopped caring
About her life
She never let
Anyone see her cry
Never said that
She wanted to die
But you could find
It in her eyes
If you could only look past
Her empty lies
It got harder and
Harder to hide
A constant struggle
To keep her alive
Soon she was nothing
But a lifeless shell
She opened her window
And then she fell
Every step was a word
Stairs to her death
Every bitter thing said
A gasp of her limited breath
They find her body
Hear her cries
Bleeding from her wrists
Limitless lies
Read her story
In blood it's told
She went to the blade
When the world turned cold
And now tonight
Shes in the stars
She shines brighter
Because of her scars
