Battle of the New and Old Me
This anger that has bubbled up inside of me is getting hard to contain,
My thoughts are getting harder to maintain,
Its gotten harder just trying to stay sane.
I've bolted up my door,
But those same emotions are seeping back in that's for sure,
I don't want to go back to who I was before.
I've been through so much,
It would be impossible to recall all the stuff.
Back then I couldn't bear to look at myself in the mirror,
But I have changed the things that are important are now much more clearer.
