The Girl Within

I have struggled in the past with pretending to be someone I'm not just to be accepted

Sometimes I wonder... when I can
If I'm the girl I think I am

And when I take a look at me
I see a girl that no one sees

And when I speak I hear no sound
My words are falling to the ground

No one hears me, I am mute
my words will never quite compute

The way I act is one big show
the girl who's here I do not know

There is one thing I'd like to say
The girl you've known has gone away

Here in her place stands someone new
A girl who'll come and talk to you
