The Real Beginning

Think it's wrong?
Think it's right?
I don't care.
Get a life!
Can't you see that I'm getting mine?!
Won't let the sun set on my mind.

Here's something that I never gave a second thought:
Can you tell me what would happen,
Happen if I fought?
Would I fail miserably,
Yeah, just fall under attack?
All the things I know I'm losing,
Could I get it all back?

I need
Someone to know me,
Someone to know
What I'm feeling right now,
Someone to help me figure it out...

This is not plan B,
And I know this.
These are the things that I see,
Passing me by everyday!

I can scream!
I can fight!
I can't cuss my way out of this life!
I can't promise till the end of time,
But you won't change this girl tonight.
