  • This Is Me

That Was Then. This Is Me Now.

I can feel the concrete beneath my feet,
The rain's pounding down on me,
And my heart's still skipping beats,
Everything jumps out from behind these walls,
I thought that I knew it all,

That was then,
Before you came into my life,
Pretended you were my friend,
Well that was then,
Before the world went crazy,
And everybody went insane,
Or maybe I did

The wind calls my name,
And it sounds like your voice,
I hear it everywhere,
My lips burn from where you kissed them last,
I keep running away but I can't escape my past,
I thought I could do it all,

That was then,
Before you came into my life,
Pretended you were my friend,
Well that was then,
Before the world went crazy,
And everybody went insane,
Or maybe I did,

The sun is slowly peaking out, starting to shine,
And I know in my heart I still have what's mine,
My integrity, my dignity,
You can't take all of me,
But you took a good part of me away,
That's something I cannot erase,
And this is me now,
Now that you've left my life.
