Songs I Never Heard - Tears

Printer-friendly version

Maybe someone can find where some of this song comes from. It's a song I never heard.

Tears streak the eyes of a once lovely girl
Seeking understanding in a disallusioned world
Her bed holds a body that has been abused and shamed
And there's no way of discribing how her heart feels the pain

And she's desiring sympathy from no one that she knows
Around her friends she never shows dismay
And no one's ever known how she prays
To live a life knowing love

Now she has dressed and found release, seen counselors by the score
She's been told that she's a he, and he is she, forever more
She's busted what they told her and built what they say can't be
She's trusted in that little girl the one they say can't be

And she's desiring sympathy from no one that she knows
Around her friends she never shows dismay
And no one's ever known how she prays
To live a life knowing love

Now she's changed her shape grown hips and breasts and let her hair go long
Given up hated boys toys, and bought herself a doll
Now her bed holds a different girl though her heart still holds the pain
Still hiding all the lies and hits though the world will never see

And she's desiring sympathy from no one that she knows
Around her friends she never shows dismay
And no one's ever known how she prays
To live a life knowing lov

And she's desiring sympathy from no one that she knows
Around her friends she never shows dismay
And no one doubts she's who they know
And she lives a life knowing love...

Songs I Never Heard - Tears

Sounds like a song to be sung by many, here. I can see this song applying to many ladies here.

Sounds like a song to be

Sounds like a song to be sung by many people on this site. I can see this song applying to many women here. How very much like the world it is too be shamed, abused, misaligned, and catagorically dismissed as 'weird' (at best). And these are the wages for choosing to be who we know ourselves to be. It is said that those who choose to stick their heads above the crowd should expect somebody to throw a tomato. Your heart felt ballad has the stench of truth and I feel for you, and all others, who find themselves being isolated from people; not by choice, but by exclusion.

Andrea Lena's picture

...I never found this song listed in a compilation that was never written. The clerk never came over to help out at the store that never existed. I tried looking on line at the library, but no books were ever written about the sadness no one seemed to understand, and the lady who wasn't at the information desk never pointed me in the direction of the section that wasn't available, but failed anyway to tell me what to expect when they didn't want me. Too, too close for comfort, sister mine.

She was born for all the wrong reasons but grew up for all the right ones.
Dio benedica la mia bella amici, Andrea
