Today, I thought I'd write a song <br />About the way your body glistens in the moonlight <br />But this is not that song <br />No this is not that song <br />This is for everyone who has been wrong <br />Or wronged, not told the truth, <br />Heartbroken, left hanged out to dry <br />This is for the boy who sits in the back <br />Of the room and stares at this girl <br />Who wears these glasses with frames a little too big <br />And they hide her pretty face <br />And he knows that if she just took them off <br />Then she'd be beautiful <br />And maybe look in the mirror and realized she's beautiful <br />And this is for that girl <br />Who hides behind the frames and the dark eye makeup <br />Because her boyfriend told her that that's just what beautiful is <br />And the mini skirts and the tight sweaters <br />Oh if he just took the chance to know her <br />He'd know she just wants to wear jeans <br />And t-shirts that show her arms, but she can't <br />‘Cause they're laden with scars, past memories <br />These memories haunting <br />Yeah this is for the used, others were amused <br />Used for their entertainment, then gone <br />No no one really knows if that girl will meet that boy <br />Even though it's so obvious to everyone else <br />That if they went out they'd be such a cute couple <br />They're perfect for each other <br />Yeah he'd take care of her, and her of him <br />And maybe once we'd have a happy ending <br />But sometimes all you can do is let it bleed<br /><br />Christopher's Dead<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/look-in-the-mirror-kids-you-re-beautiful/
