How Strong Do You Think I Am?

May 27, 2011

If I look away that doesn't mean I don't see...
And If I don't cry ,that doesn't mean I don't feel.
Just because I fall at times,Doesn't mean I can't
stand on my own..I'm not helpless,I promise.


How weak do you think I am?
Do you think I need you this bad?
Don't you dare change your mind, you said it all.
But you don't want to admit I've grown..
How strong do you think I am?
With all the screams and the lies and broken promises...
The last one to give in is the first one to lose this time.


I wandered 'round looking for someone else to save me,
Exactly how you said I would.
No one ever said I was bulletproof.
How strong do you think I am?
Strong enough to pull myself out of the darkness you trapped me in?
How weak do you think I am?
Weak enough to allow this to continue or just let it go
again, again, and again...

I'm not a rock or a rose,Just a girl feeling cold.
