They say that I am not the one they knew. But in the mirror every day, I look and still find the girl I used to be. They say I am much stronger now, But from the beginning I’ve been fighting the demons alone to be free. They say that you handled everything so gracefully But I have been crumbling down ever since. They believe I have become a woman with a heart of gold, Though my heart melted down and turned so strong. Would it matter if it turns to stone? They say I came back from a trip, A trip to find myself. They think they know the truth, But the thing is It was a place I lost my everything And found the one they see in me!
