Monifah - She's Me lyrics

Everybody told 'er Be careful of the strangers But no one ever said the danger's here at home Nobody will believe 'er That's what he always told 'er That's why she pulls away When anybody holds her She feels so alone Without a place to call home And she smiles, pretends that it's okay But she's disseized her stars They never fade away And she laughs to mask away the pain Something that they said She'd never be the same She's your mother, she's your sister She's your lover, she's your friend Looking to arise once again She's me, she's me She was just a nice girl (she was just a nice girl) Or maybe just a shy girl She never even dreamed that you would notice her (notice her) He was mr. popular (popular) His attention was an honor But when he got her alone He turned into a monster Nobody knows She thought she couldn't say no And she smiles, pretends that it's okay But she's disseized her stars They never fade away And she laughs to mask away the pain Something that they said She'd never be the same She's your mother, she's your sister She's your lover, she's your friend Looking to arise once again She's me, she's me.. Nobody knows She thought she couldn't say no And she smiles, pretends that it's okay But she's disseized her stars They never fade away And she laughs to mask away the pain Something that they said She'd never be the same She's your mother, she's your sister She's your lover, she's your friend Looking to arise once again She's me, she's me
