ALONE BUT NOT LONELY,
IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE THIS PERSON I’VE BECOME IS THE NEW ME
CHALLENGES I NEVER THOUGHT I DARE TO TAKE ARRIVE ON MY DOORSTEP ALMOST DAILY
EACH ONLY A GLIMPSE AWAY FROM THE KNEW ME
SO EAGER TO FIND HER IS SHE REALLY ME
THE LITTLE WHISPERS OF HOPE THAT I FAINTLY HEAR
WERE ENOUGH FOR THIS GIRL TO APPEAR?
SHE HAS GIVEN SO MUCH, GIVEN HER ALL
BUT IT NEVER WAS APPRECIATED AT ALL
THEY LOOK DOWN AT HER FOR MAKING A CHANGE
SHE IS STRONGER KNOW
GOODBYE IS A GOOD WORD
TO ALL THOSE THINGS SHE HELD ON TO
KNOW SHE WONDERS WHY SHE WASTED YEARS, ANGRY TEARS, DREAMS ARE WHAT KEPT HER ALIVE
THINGS SHE BOUGHT TO MAKE HER FEEL GOOD
LONGING FOR THE LOVE THAT THAT WAS NEVER UNDERSTOOD
SHE HAS TO FIND OUT, WHERE SHE WANTS TO BEGIN
NEW DREAMS, NEW LOVES, NEW TITLES TO BE MADE ON THIS PAGE OF LIFE THAT HAS ONLY BEGAN
SHOULD OF, COULD OF WILL MATTER KNOW MORE
SHE SMILES EACH TIME, SHE OPENS THE DOOR
THIS IS WHO SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE STRONG, COURAGEOUS, SPEAKING FREE
BUBBLING WITH HOPE AND CHALLENGES
SHE’LL SEE IT'S TIME TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR THE SMILING NOW FROM INSIDE-OUT
MEMORIES TO MAKE BY JUST STEPPING OUT
DOING IT FOR THE GIRL WHO LIVED A WITH A MASK
SHE’S SHATTERED IT AND HAS A BLAST OF QUIET DAYS AND BUBBLE BATHS JAZZ, TEA, A BOOK TO BE READ AND A CURLED UP CAT KB
