They tell me to not get lost in my own little world
I think they are talking about phones
But I don't really know
The only world I get lost in is in my books
Most don't understand why
Or even how
But I do
And I understand it really well
In my books I can be anyone
I can be the girl at prom kissing her date
I can be the girl worrying over a test
I can be the girl with a boyfriend
I can be the girl who fights aliens
I can be the girl who is strong
I can be the girl who is shy
I can be the girl who is popular
And if I really wanted to
I can be the boy taking the girl to prom
I can be the boy saving the lost girl 
I can be the boy fighting monsters
I can be the boy who saves the world
And I don't even have to be human
I can be a Mermaid
I can be an alien
I can be some vicious beast who actually has a heart
In my own little world
The world I call books
I can be anyone
I can be anything
Don't tell me to not get lost in my own little world
Not unless you have the best possible reason
Not unless you really explain it
Until you give me a reason
Or a great explanation
I'm going to go get lost
Lost in my own little world
