I used to live, breathe an eat happy Until sadness blinded me and tragedy defined me I tried to find and look through the eyes of smile's soul Reality had nothing to show Cold fact wouldn't let me see What me and free could be So I taught me Not to feel... Plausible perfection of pain pierced persistently Somehow I smiled defiantly Somehow through my empty existence I decided to live Then tragedy no longer defined me Instead...it taught me how to love truly The woman I am The woman I was The woman I'll be...
