Lost In A Hardly Requited Love

Who's that girl over there
The one who's smiling
She has the sun in her hair
But she looks like she's really trying
To keep that smile on her face
She seems pretty sad inside
Most are off base
About her bubbly personality, she just wants to hide

In the layers of baggy sweatshirt
She hides to cover up
The way she hurts
The water is half empty in her life's cup
The tears don't ever come
They pool behind swollen eyes
She feels so dumb
But oh,how she tries

People just ignore
The way she's losing it
The way she crumbles when he walks through the door
The way she was bit
With loves sharp bite
And she hates the way
She's a sad sight
Giving her last effort to someone who doesn't stay

She gives much more than she gets
She feels lost and confused
She's treated like she's a pet
Her dignity is black and bruised
She should tell him she's done
But she's in too far
She's in love with the sun
Something she can't quite reach, a distant star
