lyrics

New Place


Rachel POV Thirteen Year Old Rachel (REMEMBER RAVEN=RACHEL)

I was standing by the stage to my schools music competition. Waiting to be called up. I was totally scared on the inside, but kept a straight face on the outside. I was terrified to sing in front of so many people. But I would never let antone know that. To my complete relief I had a straight face on. I picked out the song with my mom and it was something that could relate to me and every girl and women in this room. I just hope I did good and didn't make a fool of myself. It was only three more turns and then it would be mine, the director told me. I nodded my head understandingly. A minute later my best friend was next to me. Trying to calm me down, since he knew I was an emotional wreck. Key word for all this was trying.

"Rae your going to do great." My friend/crush Richard said soothingly, though it didn't help me at all.

"No, I won't. I'll mess up the notes and the lyrics if I go up there. I just can't do it Richard." I said sadly. What I said however made him a little upset.

"STOP SAYING THAT! You can do anything you want to, if you would just believe in yourself. And I know you can. Rachel just go out there and have fun. You won't mess up cause I can tell your good. Even though you would never let me listen to you practice. You don't have to, but remember you'll probably regret not doing it in the future." He ranted at me.

I nodded a little scared at his reaction. I smiled suddenly and hugged him, hard. "Thanks Richard." I told him before I was called to the stage.

"Good luck, I know you'll do great." He said as I walked off. I thought I heard him mutter something like. 'You always do.' But that could've been my imagination. I grabbed the mike and the music hadn't start yet. I took the time to look around for something or someone. I looked around quickly and saw Richard standing with my parents, Victor, Gar, and Kori. I knew she had a crush on him too, but I also knew he liked someone else. Who though no idea. The music started and I started to sing the lyrics.

This is for all you girls about thirteen

Highschool can be so rough, be so mean

Hold onto, onto your innocence

Stand your ground when everybody's giving in

This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about twenty five

In little apartments just trying to get by

Living on, on dreams and spaghettio's

Wondering where your life is gonna go

I watched my family and friends dance to my song and the music. Richards eyes however were still on me. He smiled at me reasuringly as I kept singing. I started to dance to the music as well.

This one's for the girls

Who've ever had a broken heart

Who've wished upon a shooting star

You're beautiful the way you are

This one's for the girls

Who love without holding back

Who dream with everything they have

All around the world

This one's for the girls (This one's for all the girls)

I used to wish on stars when I was little for a better future. Now I sometimes did it to hope he'd like me back. My dad always said I always dreamed with my heart and everything I had. So this verse seemed to fit me.

This is for all you girls about forty two

Tossing pennies into the fountain of youth

Every laugh, laugh line on your face

Made you who you are today

This one's for the girls

Who've ever had a broken heart

Who've wished upon a shooting star

You're beautiful the way you are

This one's for the girls

Who love without holding back

Who dream with everything they have

All around the world

This one's for the girls (This one's for all the girls)

My mom had lots of laugh lines on her face so this verse seemed to fit her. Along with Richard, myself...sometimes, Vic and Gar. Kori she didn't have as many as us, she just had more smile lines. I did know one thing for sure about the chorus of this song, both me and my mom had have broken hearts.

Yeah we're all the same inside (same inside)

From one to ninety nine

This one's for the girls

Who've ever had a broken heart

Who've wished upon a shooting star

You're beautiful the way you are

This one's for the girls

Who love without holding back

Who dream with everything they have

All around the world, yeah

This one's for the girls (This one's for all the girls)

Yeah this one's for all the girls

I finished singing and dancing to find applause waiting for me. I smiled to the crowd and stepped down. Immediately, I was engulfed in a huf by my group and my parents. I laughed as they told me how well I was. I, however, was more focused on the judges, since I was the last performer they were voting on the winner. Richard seemed to notice so he said quietly to me.

"Don't worry you did awesome." I nodded in responce letting myself relax at his words.

"We have decided the winners." One of the Judges finally said.

"In third place...Jessica Kasper!" The crowd applauded for her. She was in some of my classes and we were kinda friends. The crowd respectfully applauded.

"In second place Christian!" He was the only guy in our school named Christian so nobody bothered with his last name. He was friends with Vic, Gar and Richard more than with me. The applause went up a little bit in my loud-o-meter.

"And in first place...Rachel Roth!" The crowd exploded with applause as my name was called. I walked to the stage and took my trophy and new Ipod. Then, went to my friends and we all quickly made an exit.

Richard and I were in the back of the group. Just talking.

"I told ya Rae." He told me immediately.

"Yeah, I know, I know." I told him.

"You really did good Rachel. And you did deserve to win." He said giving me a kiss on my cheek before running to catch up with the guys. I swear I saw a blush on his face. And I knew I had one to. I laughed as I caught up him thinking one thing. 'Maybe the song was a little wrong.'

"DUDES WHY ARE YOU GUYS BLUSHING!"
