Sleepless nights,

The stars never dim,

I see my name, my name

Water hot,

It scalds your skin,

I feel the same, the same

 

Take me in and pour me out

Let the sea roll me around and

Pull me down

 

And so my story goes,

You never knew,

I stand on my own

 

Thunderstorm,

Feel it rain some more,

Part of my form, my form

I’m a girl cutting through a man’s world

It’s what I am…

 

Though it’s late to fall asleep,

All those pieces of me I will

Vow to keep

 

And so my story goes,

You never knew,
I stand on my own,

Not torn in two,

And maybe when it’s told

You’ll see it through,

Then I’ll feel it all

 

So, now you know

Close your eyes and let go

I will never follow,

You owned me and now you don’t

 

I’m tired of being quiet,

And I’ll scream it all the time, and

I am

 

I’m owning my feelings,

And I’m no longer dreaming

I am
