Do you see that girl?
The one laughing and smiling with her friends?
As she smiles she thinks 'I wish they knew'
As she laughs she thinks 'I wish they could see my pain'
As she enters her car she thinks
'I wish someone would hurry up and save me'
Everyone sees this perfect girl
They despise this girl
They know her name
Not her story
They've heard what she'd done
Not what she's been through.
