I stand here a girl with blue eyes in pain
Muscles flexing and twitching
Body not moving as I reach a decision
Deep inside me there can only be one way to go
I can either lie down and let this drag me down and die
Or I can be a fighter with fire in their eyes
The voice inside my head tells me to let down the walls
I can be safe by learning to accept who I am
The mask around my eyes begins to splinter and decay
I have no idea who I am any more
Am I the girl who can smile and light a room up still
Or the one who can break a heart with a single tear drop
Teeth begin to grind against one another
Fingers crack as I flex my arms and feel strength flow through them
I can do this - with or without you
I can remember how to fight the shadows and darkness
The rain will fall on the sunniest of days to hide my tears
I am tired of being the victim
It's time to reclaim my inner power and beauty
It's time to become....
Me.
