Before I'm gone, tell them that
I was once a little girl,
A little girl who knew what it
meant to be alive.
Tell them that I was once a little girl,
A little girl who never knew what fear was,
A girl whose dreams were shattered too early,
A girl who lost everything in just a second.
Before I'm gone, tell them that
I once had a smile on my face,
But like everything else
It was taken away,
Wiped from the face of the Earth.
Tell them that I loved like no one else;
I loved so much that it tore me inside out,
And even then, I didn't care about the pain it caused.
Before I'm gone, tell them that I tried,
I really did,
But it was just too late,
She was already gone.
