When in love, sometimes it’s better to leave and flower than to stay and wilt

‘Good Girl’
%28Alexandra+Molloy%2FDaily+Collegian%29
(Alexandra Molloy/Daily Collegian)

That good girl is gone

She walked away

That good girl is gone

Her fake smile melted away

The wounds on her flesh vanished

The scars on her heart vanished

She is growing free

She is becoming what is her need’s be

She let the pain through

Let the pain surface

It consumed her soul and made her look lifeless

But now her eyes are full

Now she can see

See the world and how it is meant to be

That good girl is gone

She walked away

That good girl is gone

Her fake smile melted away

His heart is a mess

And he’s lost his courting skills in life’s game of chess

Because that nice girl he hurt has left

She took the train away to see another day

While he just wastes his nights away

Alone and heartbroken, he regrets his mistake

Because,

That good girl is gone

She walked away

That good girl is gone

Her frown died that day
