What I Am

What I Am

It’s my time to be what I am.
There’s no more you and me.
And quite frantically,
That’s how it should be.

You don’t have a clue.
Thinking everything revolves around you.
Give it time, baby boy.
You’ll see she was just a toy.

Not being held back now.
This is my time now.
Don’t bother trying,
Because inside I was the one dying.
