Sweet, Smart, and Quiet, by Dia Subscribe to rss feed for Dia

Look at Anna.
Sweet, smart, and quiet Anna.

She dances around in her little world.
Smiles as she twirls through the crowd,
Until she's dizzy, dizzy,
But stopping is simply not allowed.

Look at Anna, Ana, Ana..Mee..Uh.
She'll agree..uh, that
It's no world, but it's better than yours.
It's all faux twirls, but it opens doors.
She will swallow her share and her little world
And throw it uh, uhh, uh ,uhh..up. more.

She dances around in her little world.
Smiles as she twirls through the crowd,
Until she's dizzy, dizzy,
But stopping is simply not allowed.

Now look at little Anna.
She is cold.
That isn't new, for she has down
All over her body, too weak to frown.
She is still.
Now she'll never twirl.
Oh dear God, she was just a girl.

Sweet, smart, and quiet.

people would describe me as sweet, smart, and quiet. and i will admit i do have my own worlds. if anna was a real person you are lucky to have known her. i have never met anyone else who is sweet, smart, and quiet. this site is my only voice that shows my world. thanks for the inspiring story.
