The Worthless They Made You Feel -Matthew West-

A line from my 4th most favorite song, Matthew West- Broken Girl, says "Your not the worthless they made you feel." You know, how my friends they just start fights. Anytime I fight with them, I can come and rely on Broken Girl. I always just thought of this song as the August-Abuse song. Yeah, that's been my little name for it. I know the abuse was in August because my blog page for the last time I was with them was the last day of August, the 31st. So, I always thought of it that way. Now, I realized Broken Girl is much more than that. It is a song I can rely on to cheer me up. It's telling me "You don't have to stay the broken girl" and it makes me think I don't have to. It's such a good song and it's so reflecting. Like I did with Time's Up, I am gonna post the lyrics and put in color what represents me. This time because this song reflected me very well in the past, and those same parts would not reflect me anymore, I'll do a different colour for my past, as well. I'll also have a colour for both. Here we go with colours...

PAST: GREEN
PRESENT: BLUE
BOTH: RED

Look what he's done to you
It isn't fair
Your light was bright and new
But he didn't care

He took the heart of a little girl
And made it grow up too fast

Now words like "innocence"
Don't mean a thing
You hear the music play
But you can't sing

Those pictures in your mind
Keep you locked up inside your past

(chorus)

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are
Hear me when I say
You're not the worthless they made you feel

There is a Love they can never steal away
And you don't have to stay the broken girl

Those damaged goods you see
In your reflection
Love sees them differently
Love sees perfection

A beautiful display
Of healing on the way tonight
Tonight

(chorus)

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are
Hear me when I say

You're not the worthless they made you feel
There is a Love they can never steal away
And you don't have to stay the broken girl

(bridge)

Let your tears touch to the ground
Lay your shattered pieces down
And be amazed by how Grace can take a broken girl
And put her back together again

(chorus)

This is a song for the broken girl
The one pushed aside by the cold, cold world
You are
Hear me when I say
You're not the worthless they made you feel
There is a Love they can never steal away
And you don't have to stay the broken girl
You don't have to stay the broken girl

As you can tell, the first parts and the second part similar to the first part are majortly my past because the song is mainly about my past, not my present. It's not supposed to be a song to reflect me right now. The chorus is red. A little bit of it is blue. Let me explain why some certain lines were certain colours.

One of the parts of the beginning said "He took the heart of a little girl, and made it grow up too fast." I put that in green because, come on. I related to that line so well. I even posted it everywhere on Quotev. Stories, About Me. You know.

There's part that says, "Those pictures in your mind, keep you locked up inside yout past." I put that in blue because sometimes I go back to those terrible August moments, and those pictures keep me locked up inside my own head. Besides, it says locked up in your past. That's what I reflect on.

Another part says, "Those damaged goods you see, in your reflection" and yeah, I did. I always looked at myself and I liked me decently. Then, one morning after abuse, I went and I looked in the mirror. I saw my face, red and pale. I saw my hair falling out, and I looked down at myself. I was damaged. Being fixed is hard. Sometimes, here and there, my hair falls out!!! :D

The chorus was in red because the chorus isn't much for the abuse part of the song, it's more just for anyone to reflect on. That's what I did. The other parts are one or another. Thanks for reading and checking back. As moments go on, Broken Girl only gets better! I love this song! In fact, I am listening to it right now. Alright, check back for more!
