My backyard memory
In my backyard there was a swing
it was the closest thing I had to a wing
I was stupid to hold on to a thing
so when it broke my heart lost a string
In my backyard there was a slide
it kept my secrets whenever I cried
And under it I used to hide
when it was gone about being hurt I lied
In my backyard there was a girl
she was innocent and as pure as a pearl
with a happy laugh she used to twirl
but it all ended when she got stuck in a whirl
That little girl is actually me
but people around me were too blind to see
that the girl that once smiled in
glee
now just smiles to hide her agony
