I win

You thought you'd beaten me

But here I am

You thought you'd won

But here I stand

I have a voice

You didn't silence it forever

Here I am, standing tall.

Not high above it all, but here on the ground. 

Right where you nearly left me, without a sound.

But I have a sound now

I've won

While you've forgotten, I've forgiven

I've won

It won't matter to you, what you've done. But it matters to me

And I've won

In the future we may meet, and I'll be just the girl you used to beat

But, I will smile and simply say, "Why don't you have a great day."

Because don't you see?

I've won.
