Afraid to face the truth,
Of what is in my heart.
I need to see the proof,
That you won’t break it apart.
I’m so tired of trying so hard,
I can’t do enough to please you.
Every time, I see you, I drop my guard,
I just don’t know what to do.
All I want now is the truth,
Now that I’m strong enough to see.
I’m no longer the girl you knew,
I’m a woman, the new improved me.
I don’t want a cheap explanation,
Or some stupid alibi.
I won’t accept any hesitation,
Because it will prove it’s just another lie.
