Lost and Broken

The Misunderstood

The girl that seems shy
But really is not
She has all the sass on the inside
All the boldness she isn't bold enough to show
She thinks of it all
You just don't know
She tries to explain
But you don't understand
"That's not true," you say
But you just don't know
You'll never know
Cause she doesn't have the courage
She's afraid you'll judge her

The boy that seems so bold
But really is not
He's shy on the inside
But seems like he's fierce when he talks
He wants to be himself
But he just can't not say
All the things no one else will
He answers all the questions
How they're supposed to be answered
Knows all the rules
And tells others to follow them too
But he's really like the rest of you
He just has to live up to the expectations
That his peers-you-have set for him
If you would only let him be who he is
You would see
He's really just a kid
Same as you
