The Other Girl

The other girl inside of me
Doesn't know how she got here
Doesn't know if she can go back
Doesn't know if she should

The other girl inside of me
Sometimes cried because
She thinks she should
She knows she must
She can't believe this life

That other girls was pretty once
Younger once, smarter once
That other girls used to dream
About where she'd be
Not where she is

Can that other girl still be me?
Can she make it better
Or will it just always be
Different than it was
Or was supposed to be?

The other girl inside me knows
Exactly how she got here
Exactly when she decided
To let love overrule her other dreams
And exactly why she did

No regrets.
No other choice would have been better
We both know that, but still it hurts
Don't know if I can go back
Don't know if I really want to
Go forward to another place
Find another girl inside of me.
