Looking back
At my life
I see terror
Worry and strife
I see looks
Of total despair
There's an eerie silence
That fills the air
But the past is gone
And the future is near
I am moving forward
Without a shred of fear
The light in the tunnel
Grows ever so bright
The path that I've chosen
Will turn out alright
My once shattered outlook
Has been put back together
Things have been bad
But they will get better
Once all alone
But now in a crowd
No matter where I am
I still stand out
For who could be me
Who'd take my place
Who'd claim the memories
Written all over my face
I am who I am
Like it or not
No one in this world
Could give what I've got
Look through my eyes
Live a day in my skin
No matter what happens
Everything remains within
