This is basically a song about my life based on real events in my life. I can't stand people smiling when I'm breaking, I hate it when people can tell that I'm faking my whole life, I like banana splits and licking mint ice cream off my lips, And I love it when people speak to me. How could a girl like me be a bit of a world that never fits just right? And I like relaxing in the moonlight on top of my roof every night, There's something strange about me. And nobody seems to notice that I'm just me, They're all to busy trying to make me into what they want me to be, I'm so perfect for a girl like me, Heaven can wait, I can live my dream, With you by my side and everything's feeling alright, 'Cause I got you, yeah, and you're gonna help me through All the wind and the rain, the fire and its flames, Because you'd stick with me through anything, And you know I'd do it all over again for you. This friendship's taken a turn and there are still lessons, That we have to learn, Since there seems to be no place for a girl like me, A lone dreamer in a single parent family, 'cause God knows he never cared for me, Dreams of reaching the top, dreaming of getting on that stage to rock, My country music to awaken the ten year old girl in me, There's something secret about me. And nobody seems to notice that I'm just me, They're all to busy trying to make me into what they want me to be, I'm so perfect for a girl like me, Heaven can wait, I can live my dream, With you by my side and everything's feeling alright, 'Cause I got you, yeah, and you're gonna help me through All the wind and the rain, the fire and its flames, Because you'd stick with me through anything, And you know I'd do it all over again for you. But on that night, the heartbreak that I faced when I saw you, It was all a mistake I never meant to make, Tried to stay strong, tried to comfort you, And then I fell in love, Didn't really know where I was going to, Seemed like the world had started tumbling down, And the only safe place seemed to be you, Just what did I do? There's something that's changed about me. And nobody seems to notice that I'm just me, They're all to busy trying to make me into what they want me to be, I'm so perfect for a girl like me, Heaven can wait, I can live my dream, With you by my side and everything's feeling alright, 'Cause I got you, yeah, and you're gonna help me through All the wind and the rain, the fire and its flames, Because you'd stick with me through anything, And you know I'd do it all over again for you Nobody knows just how much, You all mean to me. This is life as I know it, And nobody knows, nobody sees, How much you all mean to me, Just how much you all mean to me.
Wow! I actually sang this through and it sounded really good. It's a definitely a great song and really sounds like something I'd see in a Facebook status. Only thing is that the last verse sort of makes it sound like a suicide note or something similar. Either way, it's great and is definitely something I'd like to sing to real music. <3
