Through the past I look back with such disgrace
I have no idea who that girl was then
I try to remember all that I was feeling at the time
But the pain I feel throws me back into the dark
What I did to those I love was more than a crime
I pushed all away in fear of what I was
Then as I turned to face the light of day again
I realised half of those I thought I loved and cared
Were turning away from the girl who knelt crying
In my pain they had enough and were more than ill-prepared
As I looked around at the people who stayed
I was filled with more than I ever knew
These people who still stand by me
Are soldiers who are found too rare and too few
They have helped me see the future
Shown me the true woman who was hiding who I can easily be
Held me when I wept at night, to love and to nurture
I love you all, I’m almost there
In daylight I can see my new dream
In all this pain I can’t believe it
There’s a glimpse of more than of just a beam
