She's trying so hard
She's trying to be herself
She's trying to be heard
She's trying to be happy
You keep shooting her down
You tell her she's doing everything the wrong way
You tell her to be quiet, that no one cares about what she has to say
You tell her she's not good enough, every single day
They are just words
That's what you think
But believe me when I say
Words cut deep
They leave scars
Scars that won't ever fade away
