She sees the scars that life has left behind
The injuries that time will not repair
But in her cold reflection it’s impossible to find
A penny’s worth of pity in her stare
Regret is not a cross she needs to bear
She’s a woman who will bend but never break
On a path that only she would ever take
When she’s down but not defeated
With her problems uncompleted
When she struggles to defy a darker day
She reminds herself to find another way
Her journey is a battle to believe
She doubted she was strong enough to fight
But courage makes her confident of what she can achieve
The questions she encounters every night
Reveal to her the reasons she is right
She’s a woman who will bend but never break
On a path that only she would ever take
When she’s down but not defeated
With her problems uncompleted
When she struggles to defy a darker day
She reminds herself to find another way
Her face is more than memories or dreams
The pages of a never-ending play
She knows her transformation is the tragedy it seems
A life from which she cannot walk away
The pain that tries to break her, day by day
In the mirror there is nothing more to see
There is only what she knows she had to be
She’s a woman who will bend but never break
On a path that only she would ever take
When she’s down but not defeated
With her problems uncompleted
When she struggles to defy a darker day
She reminds herself to find another way
When she sees the scars that life has left behind
When she’s fearful of the future she will find
When she struggles to defy a darker day
She reminds herself to find another way
