She used to be
So pretty
She had a future
She held the key
Everything she used to be...
Is no longer there.
Aggravation
Intimidation
She gave in to humiliation
And angry as she became
This girl had turned very vein
She realized the power she could have
It was better being bad
She had thrown it all away
Her parents knelt down
They prayed and prayed
That there little girl would come back...
...But there little girl had already snapped
People viewed her differently
She had no future and no key
And if she'd done things differently
How much easier her life would be...
