Take a step
And don't look back
Laugh each day,
Don't ever crack
Let yourself be free and fly
Be suspicious of a guy
Crush on someone
Make them smile
Be the girl
With flair and style
Be unique and funny, too
All that matters is you're you
Individuality
Improvement, fun, and empathy
These are things that lift you up
They're things you never have enough
But.
You'll never forget
What could be happening
You'll never forget
What you keep hiding
You'll never forget
Why you're so distracted
You'll never know why
It sticks with you
You'll never know why
It lurks behind you
You'll never know why
It happened to you
But.
Life's a gift,
So be grateful
For your house
And for your soul
Use your brain to change the world
Learn to love and be that girl
Be confident
Always sure
Never doubt
You can endure
Everything that comes your way
Strong and smart and calm each day
Laugh at those who try too hard
You can't ever be caught off-guard
No one knows if no one cares
Be brave and fearless, take a dare
-slow down gradually-
And you can keep on living
With this "happiness" all day
You can keep on hoping
Something real will come your way
You can keep on dreaming
But you'll probly go insane-
You'll never forget
You'll never know why
You'll never wanna remember
You'll never gonna wanna try
And you go on and on
With never, never, forever
Never, never, forever
Ever, ever, no, never...
But.
No.
Decide.
