Memories from my past
Happiness that didn't last
The tears and pain from today
How did I end up this way
Where'd the girl from those pictures go
The one with the smile I used to know
Why am I no longer that girl
Those pictures make me want to hurl
I miss being that girl from long ago
I miss being the girl people were happy to know
I don't like who I am today
The one who is always afraid
I feel like that girl from long ago
Died when she found out what I now know
I feel like that was a different life
Now I live in one full of strife
Long ago when that was who I was
I'm glad you've taken this long pause
The one so you could read this rhyme
Of long ago, a happy time
A time with only a tear or two
Yet back before I had ever met you
Back when I was a happy girl
Living in this big bad world
I wish I could go to back then
And surround myself with better friends
Friends like all the ones I have now
I wish I simply just knew how
What happened to that girl from long ago
For that, I guess, we'll never know
