I used to be
So many things
Thin and blonde and beautiful
I used to be
So many things
Happy and funny and incredible
I used to have
Almost everything
The guys the friends the reputation
I used to have
Almost everything
Till life knocked at my door
Graduation came
I moved down the road
I started the nine to five
Friends drifted apart
The hours grew on
I added school on top of my life
A year goes by
Another flies too
I look in the mirror and think
Where did the skinny girl go
The smile on my face
Even my happiness seems to shrink
Now I'm curvy
And boring
And rather stay in
And I've lost all but one friend
I don't get any boys
I don't have any time
I just eat
And eat
And sleep
And cry
For I've lost the girl from within
Everyone says they're so proud
Of the woman I've become
Handling the life that I do
But when I wake up in the morning
And look at myself
I say, Who are you?
So I'd like to move back to those days
When life was so fun
But I know it's not in life's plan
So I'll settle for one thing
Just one small request
To have someone love me
Just the way I am
