She understands that no one really cares
She knows they’re all too occupied to spare their precious time
It doesn’t make a difference what she shares
The pillars of her pride were never theirs
But something in her soul defies the damage of their crime
It hurts when she believes she’s not enough
It hurts when she remembers how she tried
It hurts when every feeling falters
Time becomes too tough
When passion is relentlessly denied
The pain of it persuades her not to hide
She wonders what her heart would have to do
To detonate their passions and convince them to believe
But when she tries to shock with something new
Accepting only honesty is true
She finds a new momentum, something certain to achieve
It hurts when she believes she’s not enough
It hurts when she remembers how she tried
It hurts when every feeling falters
Time becomes too tough
When passion is relentlessly denied
The pain of it persuades her not to hide
Retreating to the shadows in her soul
She shivers in the tainted starlight no one ever sees
Discovering the strength they never stole
Emerging from her dreams to take control
She celebrates herself, and brings her doubters to their knees
It hurts when she believes she’s not enough
It hurts when she remembers how she tried
It hurts when every feeling falters
Time becomes too tough
When passion is relentlessly denied
The pain of it persuades her not to hide
She understands the faces of her fear
Indifference will make them disappear
It hurts them when their words are not enough
It hurts them when their distance is defied
It hurts them when she never falters
Time has made her tough
With passion more relentless than the tide
The pain they push is swiftly swept aside
It hurts, but she is ready for the ride
It hurts, but not enough to make her hide
