Stranger
I am a stranger to myself
One that seeks for help
But never asks
How can I help you, if I can’t help myself?
How much longer will this feeling last
I thought I knew who I was
I truly thought wrong
Am I that girl burst out in song?
The one that lives for herself
But when she see’s her father, cowards in stealth
I feel like an alien to my native land
Like a foreigner lost in an unknown place
That’s how it feels when I see my face
I see someone staring back in the mirror
Who is this person who is so far but yet so near?
Lost in the dark
Where can I find her?
The girl who I want to be
The girl that everyone see’s
The girl that wants to fly and spread her wings
Trapped in myself
Soon I’ll find my way out
No more yearning for help
My pride and dignity will surface
And I’ll no longer be a stranger to myself
