I wish that I could see myself
The way that others do;
I pray to thee, enlighten me,
So I can know the truth

To them, I'm just a worthless soul
Who isn't worth their time
If they could see inside of me
They'd maybe change their mind

I hate to hear  their cutting words
Those penetrating sounds
Though I am strong, it won't be long
'Til I am broken down

Yes, history repeats itself
Time and time again
And I can't change, nor rearrange
The mess that I am in.

The others see me differently
They just can't understand
This girl they see just longs to be
Accepted as I am.
