There was a girl I knew she had kept her heart locked and she had thrown away the key
she always cried out why does this keep happening to me
she hardly smiled it wasn't fair she was in too much pain to survive on her own she wanted to go far away
she didn't think she could handle it another day
that was the old her and it was in the past
she's slipped away like an old photograph
a smile now covers her face
she goes throught her life like she's winning a race
her friends stand by her laughing quietly
they now know she's opened a new chapter in her story
I reach out to her to tell her she survived
but I look once again and I start to realize
this old girl and the one I see now there not so different from me
I see these girls are just like me we've been through the same and got out of the tears
we each llearned how to handle our fears
these girls are exactly like me
cause these girls are just old photographs of who I used to be
