I used to go to 3 fields down the road from me before I was school age. I would run through the fields with flowers. I couldn't believe how free I felt. 

"Don't You Know Little Girl"

Verse

You've always been different

You've always been a clown

Smaller than most 

Like a boy, funny at times

Too short, too small

to wear a normal dress

Last in line

Late for class

Those odd colors on you catch the eye

Your misplaced personality leaves you blind

With discontentment

You doubt yourself too much

Chorus

Don't you know little girl

They save the best for last

You might just be a little girl now

But the whole world is waiting for your finest

Verse

Open up those lovely petals

Even though they're different

they're yours 

They bloom in uniform

Chorus

Verse

Don't let yourself feel bad

When you're always forgotten about 

pick up your chin

dry your eyes

Get out of bed

Run wild

In the outside

Your world is out there 

In anticipation 

Waiting for you to capture it

Chorus
