And who do you think you are saying I don’t know sacrifice?! I know sacrifice! You have no idea what I’ve given up! I worked so hard. I worked so hard. When my dad said we were moving in five months I locked myself in the basement and put on my iPod and I was listening to that song, and I wished I was her. And I decided to try. I was gonna be new and pretty and I started dancing and running around and I just kept going, for five months. The songs pushed me. I lost sixty pounds and I worked all summer at Just Calendars and Easy Spirit and I got all new clothes and I cut my hair so when I got there I could start new and I wouldn’t have to try so f##king hard and I did every single thing they... and now...unless I can think of something to convince them not to, they are going to destroy my life. I swear I want to help you... If it was anything else, I would do it... “If I could catch you/when you fall/I’d be your super girl.”
