Heart of Stone
The Days Were Very Long
And the Nights Were Even Longer
But Slowly Through it All
I Felt Myself Grow Stronger
I Am No Longer a Little Girl
With Fantasies, Hopes and Dreams
Somehow Life's Painful Trials
Have Strengthened Me, or So it Seems
Whatever Comes Now I Am Ready
There Will Be No Backing down
So Hurt Me All You Can
My Heart Is More than Sound
The Hurt and Pain and Agony
Have Turned My Heart to Stone
I Have No Love to Give Now
So Please Go Away...Leave Me Alone
