The one who was never there

by Nikkole   Mar 12, 2006


Inside a lonely room, the night filling it with dark
cries a girl with broken wishes, and even worse a broken heart
she cries \"i know ive made mistakes, i know ive made alot . .
but God, your supposed to be there, perhaps you have 4got
that you created us imperfect and im no exception to that rule
but you left me lonely with my faults, left me looking like a fool\"
and as she sat and vented out, speaking mostly out of fear
she poured her heart out without holding bak a single tear
she took her memories off her bulliton board, her pictures off her shelf
and tho she blamed the world some more, she could nvr blame herself
\"if my friends hadnt left me there, if he hadnt sounded so kind,
if he wasnt so good looking , if he hadn\'t played with my mind
if i was normal, maybe things would have turned out a different way
if only peer pressure didnt kick me, if only \'no\' felt right to say\"
she flipped thru pages in her diary, tearing our her aching heart
throwing pages in the trashcan as if to give her a new start
she ripped up photos, ripped up letters, saved ims from long ago
how he felt, it didnt matter, she really didnt want to know
and as she looked outside her window, she felt a feeling up her spine
a voice came from within her and began to take over her mind
\"dear child please stop crying, for i have never left your side
ive been here silently watching, and i am here to tell you why
ur mistakes were meant to happen, to prevent them from here on in
and its okay to be imperfect, but now let us begin
your friends left you to test temptation, and it beat you at the game
you gave in with no resistance, so you have only yourself to blame
he was kind to test your blindness, to see more then meets the eye
but instead you were nieve and walked so blindly by
he was good looking to test your judgment, to see how well u know
that looks arent always everything, that beauty doesnt always show
he played with your mind to test your strength, something i know u hold
but you gave in to pain and weakness and it made your heart turn cold
peer pressure wasnt present, it was your own mind insisting you go
had it not been for ur own bad judgment, you\'d have been able to say \'no\'
so your friends are not at fault, please sit and think this through
that its time to admit to doing wrong, the one to blame is you\"
and as she sat she couldnt speak, so she stared into the night
feeling foolsih, feeling hopeless, for she knew the voice was right
and tho she wanted to redeem herself, she really did not know how
so she sat and listened closely to what the voice was saying now
\"please believe me when i tell you, that you are in no way alone
this is merely helping u to guide u, to bring u on ur way home
for admitting you were rong is the first step for this to heal
and accepting your own faults will ease the pain you feel
your have made mistakes recently that people wont let go
and the more they talk about it, the more the stress seems to grow
but if you admit that you were wrong, the rumers will not stay
for being honest is a virtue and \'sorry\' goes such a very long way\"
so she admitted to her faults, she said sorry for it all
she replaced all her memories, and returned her photos on the wall
then she asked the voice \"but who are u? and what has made u care?\"
the voice simpley replied,
\"i am the one who you thought was never there\"
