Here's to the Girls

You think you’re forgotten and that Life’s a joke
When your love was stolen a child’s lifetime ago
You make your way through another crowded place
To give up more just to forget the pain
But you don’t know that you’re not alone…
Here’s to the girls
Who carry the world but will never tell
Here’s to the girls
Who deny any tear that ever fell
Everyday her shadows fight to choke her soul
Here’s to the girls
Who don’t know they’re beautiful
They’re more than beautiful
Laugh it off like life’s all a game
But deep inside the jokes just hide the shame
You’ve heard the stories of a faithful one
And silently pray your heart’s not to un-done
But you don’t know that you’re not alone…
Here’s to the girls
Who carry the world but will never tell
Here’s to the girls
Who deny any tear that ever fell
Everyday her shadows fight to choke her soul
Here’s to the girls
Who don’t know they’re beautiful
They’re more than beautiful
Bridge:
Here’s to all the girls
Broken down and alone in the world
You hide behind life’s battle scars
But it doesn’t define who you are
