[bodytext] => I’m not as tough as I know I should be, I’ve often given in to the tears. Just waiting for something to come set me free, I’ve been waiting for sixteen long years. [ Chorus ] I want to stand outside in the pouring rain, I don’t think I mind the cold any longer. Watch the raindrops fall; wash away all my pain, Whatever hasn’t killed me makes me stronger. Sometimes I can’t help but think I’m a mistake, The little girl wanted by none. With every thought, a part of me breaks, From the things that just can’t be undone. How can you tell when I’m hurting inside? Can you see through all the times that I lied? Straight-faced, I said, “No, everything’s fine.” On the outside I tried to remain calm and collected, Inwardly I hurt myself for feeling so rejected; For leaving myself so unprotected. [ Chorus ] I’m not dead yet, that’s a good sign, right? Seldom times I didn’t wish it were so. But I haven’t yet given up the fight, I haven’t surrendered to my woe. Somehow I manage to still carry on, Although I cannot promise that I will be strong, I’ll try to no longer do any wrong. And I’m willing to admit that I am weak, In my mind, my body, the words I speak, I’m sorry for all the pain that I always wreak. [ Chorus ] I’m not as tough as I know I should be, I’ve often given in to the tears. Just waiting for something to come set me free, I’ve been waiting for sixteen long years.
