What songs are about!

Tied together with a smile~ Taylor Swift March 16, 2010

Have you ever met one of those people who are beautiful? Truly beautiful, not just in a “that person is in shape, pretty, or has nice features” kind of way but someone who shines from within with a beauty that is all their own?

This song is about one of those girls who cannot see how beautiful she really is…she struggles daily with depression and feelings of worthlessness, she cries herself to sleep every night. She wastes her time on men who don’t deserve her love, giving away herself away to men who don’t want her heart, just her body, while her soul wavers in the balance….aching for love.

She smiles on the outside while the feelings of worthlessness take their toll on the inside. At times she crumbles, she cannot always be strong…she comes undone but always alone…always alone. She cries and fights against herself, cutting and clawing to feel alive or drinking until she is too numb to feel. The battle rages on inside her soul, to be worthy, to be loved, to be beautiful…to be real.

Others can’t see the struggle she hides until it consumes her. Where will her help come from?

Seems the only one who doesn’t see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
You walk around here thinking you’re not pretty
But that’s not true, cause I know you

Hold on baby you’re losing it
The water’s high you’re jumping in to it
And letting go and no one knows
That you cry but you don’t tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you’re tied together with a smile but you’re coming undone

Guess its true that love is all you wanted
Cause you’re giving it away like it’s extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain
Oh cause it’s not his price to pay
It’s not his price to pay

Hold on baby you’re losing it
The water’s high you’re jumping in to it
And letting go and no one knows
That you cry but you don’t tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you’re tied together with a smile but you’re coming undone

oh oh oh oh
Hold on baby you’re losing it
The water’s high you’re jumping in to it
And letting go and no one knows
That you cry but you don’t tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you’re tied together with a smile but you’re coming undone

oh oh oh oh
You’re tied together with a smile but you’re coming undone
