Look at you, without your grace, without your honor
You're a fallen angel, with broken wings
someday it might heal though
And you'll find your honorable grace, without the foolish pride
but you have to stop, and do what's right
not what's "Right Now", that's how you've fallen
all your mistakes, and you still haven't learned
What is it that you run from, why do you hide?
in the arms of random men, at least for one night
You look in the mirror, and turn away
is it the sight, or what you know you've done
can't you face yourself, and accept your mistakes?
no, you turn away, and you run, back to the arms of "Mr. Right Now"
You're Pathetic, and weak, I Pity You - More than i should
I Look in your eyes, and i see nothing, but shame
Who Stole your heart, and left u empty?
Did you lose your soul after the first few, or was it gone from the begining?
You have so much Hate, but for who or what?
I Know what you're Thinking, Who am i to judge
but look into my eyes, and you'll see....
i'm the soul that you lost, the hope that you gave up
i'm the part of you that wants more, while you settle for less
i'm the emotions that you've blocked out, the heart that you deny
i'm the feeling that u know u want, i'm the love that you yearn
Look in my eyes, and you'll see
I'm apart of you, I'm the Woman you want to be

I Thought of You Today,
And What We Could've Had
For A Brief Moment I Had You
And Still, I Somehow Knew
I'd Have To Let Go

This made my throat ache.
A perfect example of the strength it takes to search your soul and come up wanting.
