The beautiful thing about writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon. ~Robert Cormier


Verse 1
I catch fireflies in old mason jars
I close my eyes when I wish upon a star
When I make a deal, you have to cross your heart
And pinky promise me
No crosses count, no padlocks, or jinx

PreChorus 1
I just can’t help, can’t help being me
Even if I do it crazily

Chorus 1
I like to wear my hair down
And spin ‘round in the rain
I dance in the store to my favorite song
Even though I look insane
I like to talk, and I laugh loud
I love to sing in front of a crowd
But most of all, I’m true to me

Verse 2
I don’t hunt, so I won’t shoot Bambi
You’ll always find me with chocolate or candy
When I write a song, I show it to my friends
And I sing it to them
No matter how bad I may sound

PreChorus 1
I just can’t help, can’t help being me
Even if I do it crazily

Chorus 1
I like to wear my hair down
And spin ‘round in the rain
I dance in the store to my favorite song
Even though I look insane
I like to talk, and I laugh loud
I love to sing in front of a crowd
But most of all, I’m true to me

Bridge
I dream ‘bout the boy in the back of the choir
He’s good to his mamma and friends
While I’m filled with a selfish desire
To hold his hand

PreChorus 2
I just can’t help, can’t help being me
Even if I’m embarrassing

Chorus 1
I like to wear my hair down
And spin ‘round in the rain
I dance in the store to my favorite song
Even though I look insane
I like to talk, and I laugh loud
I love to sing in front of a crowd
But most of all, I’m true to me

This was pretty easy to write! It describes me and maybe, a lot of young girls out there! Just remember, no matter what people may think of you, never be afraid to be yourself. No matter what gender you like, your hair color, skin color, how much you weigh, what you look like, who your parents are, the mistakes you made in the past... We are all girls striving to find ourselves. The way to do that is to be yourself and never, ever give up.
