Words rush out of your mouth and pound the ground
Collapsing into nothing, sliding down the cracks
Into a world where misleading words live
For every girl who believed in the lies
For every girl who even tried
To be something they’re not
Molding into the expectations of the world
Was something simply too hard to try
Let it go and begin again
It’s not too late to live again
Open your eyes and see this world
It’s got nothing to bring you in the end
Diminishing things we like to bring
To the table to raise the bar
Of what people think we are
Reputations we attempt to uphold
Only sink our boats and wreck our world
Open your hands and accept the fact
That the lies you believed are lessons learned
Beloved take this vow and run with it
Look to the heavens and hold onto it
Where the clouds meet the blue sky
That’s where your promise lies
