Ten Years Down

Verse 1

Ten years old and they laughed at my frame

Mirror said heavy and I believed the name

Skipped the lunch tray till the floor spun round

Thin was the goal till the skin broke down

Pre-Chorus

They said give it time

Time will make it right

I counted every night

Nothing changed the light

Chorus

I was right

The world never fixed a thing

Still the same girl

With the same scars stinging

I was right

Ten years down the same road

Still the same girl

Everybody knows

Verse 2

High school hallways got louder each year

Whispers like knives and I sharpened my fear

Showed all my friends and my mom and my dad

Look what I told you yeah I'm still this sad

Pre-Chorus

They said give it time

Time will make it right

I counted every night

Nothing changed the light

Chorus

I was right

The world never fixed a thing

Still the same girl

With the same scars stinging

I was right

Ten years down the same road

Still the same girl

Everybody knows

Bridge

Same hands same face

Same hiding place

Same hollow ache

Same quiet grace

Chorus

I was right

The world never fixed a thing

Still the same girl

With the same scars stinging

I was right

Ten years down the same road

Still the same girl

Everybody knows

Outro

Still the same

Still the same girl
