Give Me Strength

Sitting in the rain alone
Looking at a place that's gone
Boarded up my memories
But something's drawn me here again
And I, I cannot leave the past alone

I hoped that I would never find
All the shit I left behind
Now I find the child in me
Is going to remind me
That I, I can't forget my past for long

So take a look outside yourself
And tell me what you see
I can't believe that you won't see the
Change in me

Give me strength to find the road that's lasting me
And give me time to heal and build myself a dream
And give my eyes to see the world surrounding me
And give me strength to be only me

I don't want to hear the things
You say you know or you've redeemed
'Cos I can't change what's gone before
Built myself some better dreams
And cast off the fear that holds me here

So take a look outside yourself
And tell me what you see
I can't believe that you won't see the
Change in me

Give me strength to find the road that's lasting me
And give me time to heal and build myself a dream
And give my eyes to see the world surrounding me
And give me strength to be only me
