[Chorus]
Wave after wave
Day after day
She tries to be brave
But she feels she can't be saved
Life is a game
And she's enduring this pain
Lately, I've just ain't been feeling the same

[Verse]
I met a girl, and she told me that she felt hopeless
She said she hurting but she felt like ain't nobody notice
Went to the doctor, and depression was the diagnosis
She said that her and her family the only ones that know this
So at school, all the students lack consideration
The dudes treat her like a piece of meat, the females hatin'
So she just go to a corner and be in isolation
And not once does someone stop to have a conversation
They would rather talk about her when she not around
Talk about how she's an over-emotional clown
Talk about how her friends are nowhere to be found
But when she close, they be sure to not make a sound
Not once has someone spoke up yet
And said maybe we don't know what she going through
Not once did someone spoke up yet
And said how would you be feeling if that was you
But that's the world we live in
A world where we don't think about other people's position
A world where we are so focused on ourselves we consider no one else
We'd rather we'd talk than just listen
But just hear me out
And I don't say this to condemn anybody because I struggle with the same things myself
I say I want to see a change in the world, but what am I really doing to help?
But let me get back to the story
Her parents would keep ignoring her every time she would try to open up about her issues
How would you be feelin' if you were tryna be real
And every time you tried to open people dismissed you
So she go around lost, searching every single day
Tryna find real love, becoming numb to the pain
Guys tell her that they love her, and she know that love is fake
But she longs for the affection 'cause it's in her mind state
So she gives them what they want, everything except a heart
Having sex to find love, not knowing she's giving parts
Of her heart to all of these different dudes
And trying to fill a void, not knowing she's being used
I just wish she knew how much she was worth
How much God loved her even before her birth
I see the pain in her eyes, and I see the hurt
I just wish she knew her own worth
[Chorus]
Wave after wave
Day after day
She tries to be brave
But she feels she can't be saved
Life is a game
And she's enduring its pain
Lately, I've just ain't been feeling the same

Wave after wave
Day after day
She tries to be brave
But she feels she can't be saved
Life is a game
And she's enduring this pain
Lately, I've just ain't been feeling the same

[Post-Chorus]
Life is a game
And she's enduring this pain
Lately, I've just ain't been feeling the same
