She lost herself.

She lost herself while searching for herself in the eyes of someone else
She lost herself trying to seek validation from others
She lost herself in hopes of trying to be like everyone else

She lost herself trying to do what she thought would make others happy
She ignoring her own need for happiness in the process
She put on a smile everyday

She's as happy as can be in every way
She laughs, plays, sings, and dances
But she's broken inside because she gave away too many chances
Do people really know what is broken?

The beat inside that won't start?
The art on her wrists that she made?
The ones that won't ever fade?
This girl, she's dying inside

All she ever does is hide
Reach out a hand and help her mend
Because soon enough she'll reach her end
She lost herself fighting for the love of everyone around her

She lost herself in the mindset of "What If?", failing to take chances
She lost herself to the sounds of this world that often told her what she couldn't do
She lost herself while ignoring the voice inside her head that told her to get out
She take a risk and make her dreams come true

She lost herself over and over again.
No matter how hard she tried, she lost herself....
She dying, she getting weaker.
