Don't let them judge you,
Because you hide behind your books.
Don't let them hurt you,
Because you carry your heart on your
Sleeve.
They will see you smile,
Then they will try to take it away
From you.
They will see you succeed,
Then they will try to bring you down.
But, oh, tender girl,
Ignore those mindless souls.
Do not pay attention to their Amatuerosity.
Do not listen to their discouraging
Speeches.
Oh, dear dear tender girl.
Don't you ever believe those lies.
Don't you ever believe what they say.
Promise me this,
Oh tender girl.
Their words will fall, like they want Your life to.
Their joy will fade, like they want
Your smile to.
Be confident, behind those second
Pair of eyes,
Smile enthusiastically, without caring
About patched lips.
Dream consistently, without needing
Their useless fuel.
Oh tender girl...
Your words are magical,
If only they were listened to.
Your eyes have so much hope,
Behind those thick glass lenses.
Tender girl, listen to me carefully.
You are amazing, just as you are.
You are beautiful, just as you are.
Tender girl, your life is worth more,
Than they say it is.
Your heart may be carried on your
Sleeve,
But at least you have one.
You may hide behind your books,
But only because you know who you
Are.
Tender girl,
I need you to stay as tender as you are
Without a doubt,
It's the most beautiful thing about you
