Changed


You think you know But please don't be so certain Of what I am and who I am Because really, we've never met before. The girl you know, she's gone away I've banished her, you see But still I'm shamed For all she did in my name. Do you recall, by any chance, A darkness in my eyes back then? I wasnt' there inside them I was hiding there behind them I can understand How you must have judged me then But look at how I've changed. Just yet, do not condemn. Look in my eyes Just one more time And for the first time, Look at me.
