You Matter



You haven't seen yourself, have you?
Let me tell you the definition of the real you
Though words can't suffice of what you want to hear
A girl in need of, with a heart so rare
Look at the way you've wiped your friends tears
Look at the saddened hearts you've placed with laughter
Though the world at times seems so unfair
Those inevitable pain you have to bear
But you rise up with so much more power
With players always as your guiding star
You've carried the burden of the world fearlessly
Just so every breathing soul can live happily
So if you ever feel worthless my dear
Let me tell you one thing: You matter!
