The One I Never Wanted To Be

Every night, a lonely girl lays awake in bed
So isolated in her own world
She hopes for a better day
And thinks to herself, “Why does things have to be this way?”
No one understands her
No one hears her screaming on the inside
It’s something she can no longer bear
No one sees her crying
No one feels her pain
No one even cares

Her anger is bottled up in her
Her sadness hidden so deep
Her secrets are waiting to be revealed
And her soul is waiting to be free from being concealed
She hides behind a mask
Running away from all her problems
She then took on a new task
Tried to change, tried to be different, tried to fit in
But her old self, her true self, is showing up again
And when she looks in the mirror,
Instead of seeing the stranger she was to herself,
She sees a nice, caring, innocent, sweet girl,
That hid behind a ruthless devil that wanted to cause harm

She’s back now
To turn everything around
To change her violent acts into good
To bring back her thoughtfulness like she should
Have done in the first place, but never did
She wants to fit in, but she’s not
She wants to change, but she can’t
She wants to be happy, but she won’t
She can’t even learn to accept herself
She’s the one I never wanted to be
Cause she’s the one everybody was either liking or hating
She was the one who was so misunderstood
She was so shy, but so caring
She’s really the one I never wanted to be
She cared so much that her love was overwhelming
Cared so much that it was wonderful
But cared so much that it felt painful

Why does she have to be like that?
Can’t she see that’s she’s being pushed around?
Why does she have to be so naïve and gullible?
Can’t she see that everybody is taking advantage of her?
Why does she have to care so much?
She’s the one I never wanted to be
Why does she have to be me?
