Two photo's
One of then one of now
I don't know how I got here but
I got here somehow

I can't believe what I was
And what I couldn't see
I cannot believe now that this is me

Back then I was different
But I was too blind to know
Now as a result all the self-hate shows

You told me I was nothing so I believed
I hid myself away from the life I should be living
But being who I was I still kept on giving

And in those days behind me I had so much going for myself
But you took it all away without me realizing it was ever there
Thats when I decided about myself I did not care

I was crying out for love
But no-one gave it to me the right way
Instead I was depressed by all you had to say

And now I stand in so much pain
Only now I see the truth I did not know
That is why I cannot let this go

Because how can this be me
Why did they break me at the start
Couldn't they see I had love in my heart

And as I hold these two pictures
One of then and one of now
I ask my how

How did things get so bad
Why was there so much hate for me
What was so wrong that we couldn't let each other be
