Who are you?

Aren’t you the girl who easily cries?

Yes, you did slip in front of the whole class.

You studied hard just to pass

Sometimes things don’t go your way

But, you have to know,

Everything’s going to be okay

You don’t have to be ashamed

Just because you didn’t get a date for prom

It’s alright

Even if you have never held a pom-pom

You smile even though you know it hurts

You look away when you see your weight

You cry when no one showed up on your date

But you have to know it’s all okay

It’s all going to be okay

Even if dark clouds roll in

Rain drops to the ground

It isn’t as hard as it sounds

You’re going to be okay

You’re perfect in your own way

Everything’s going to be okay

Even if you cry yourself to sleep

Shed the tears you tried to keep

Don’t cry over a guy

So what?

You were rejected

No matter what, believe in my words;

You are perfect
