The Original

Stuck inside her life
screams in her pillow
to pass the night
The girl no one cares to know
And her pain
it never shows

Just hides it with a smile
They don't see that all the while
she's slowly dying
In dark corners
she lies crying

She tells herself:
Here I am
Just take me as I stand
no need to feel insecure
No chance
i'll ever be like her
It's better than feeling
sad and lonely
She's the one, the only,
The Original

They said she's never make it
That her face blends in the crowd
All her life
forced to take it
Speaking out was never allowed

Now she's found her solid ground
When the world had let her down
When there was no one else

She told herself:
Here I am
Just take me as I stand
No need to feel insecure
Or am I just too sure?
It's better than feeling
sad and lonely
She's the one, the only,
The Original

And as for that girl
with the face lost in the crowd
the girl no one cared to know
She lays her heart out to show
She's the one, the only,
The Original
