Find Myself

It's so easy to deceive
When you've spent so long believing.
And it's not hard to fake a smile
When that's the best you've ever known.
And it's so easy to walk beside yourself
When you're the only one who's listening.
You grow comfortable to being all alone.

It's been so long,
And you didn't wait for me.
But I was much more strong
Than I ever thought I'd be.
You pushed me to ground,
And, Baby, I'm still crawling.
But I'll find a way to get up some time, somehow.
I don't need you.
I don't need anyone else.

The face inside the mirror,
Isn't one that you know well.
But it's the one that you've been seeing,
And it's getting too close to tell.
Every scar and broken heart
Is just one more reminder
That you lost her once, and now it's time to go and find her.

I don't know who I am,
And I don't know why I'm crying.
My eyes have never been this red.
I've spent all these years trying to forget.
But it's never been that easy.
I just need someone to try to help but not try to fix me.

It's been so long,
And you didn't wait for me.
But I was much more strong
Than you said I'd ever be.
You kicked me while I was down,
And, Baby, I'm still crawling.
But I'll find a way to get up some time, somehow.
I don't need you.
I don't need anyone else.
I need to find myself.

All those things that you said when you left
Haven't left my mind.
I think about you all the time.
I've been so down for a while.
But I know,
I'm getting better all the time.

I just need to somebody to love me all the time.
But it's got to be me this time.

It's been so long.
You never wait for me.
But I am much more strong
Than I thought I'd ever be.
I've been kicked to the ground,
And, Lord, I'm still kneeling.
But I'll find a way to get up some time, right now.
I don't need you.
I don't need anyone else.
I need to find myself.

I don't need you
And I don't need anyone else.
I just need to find myself.
