Become My Own
Through Good And Bad Happy
And Sad Strong And True
Sad And Blue
With or without you
Never once did I doubt you
Throughout time
With a devastated mind
Time After Time
Lie after lie continuing to fight
For together we created life
For the years passed me by
Never knowing why
Yet still I must try
As the days pass me bye
I wish I had known
I could make it on my own
If somehow I could have known
Never would I have been
So afraid to stand alone
And become my own...
