On my own
by: Rosalie Truong
I used to be weak
and needed your strength
I let you carry me in your arms
making me laugh as you show me that you are strong
looks of concern wash over your face when I faint
you would stand by my bedside until I would wake
but I am not so weak anymore
I don't really need someone every second at my side
I am strong, on my feet, I can stand
I need to live my life as a woman instead of depending on my man
I used to need your comfort
whenever I got hurt
but I need to, on my own, stand
I need to face my own pain
I'm not that little girl I once were
even though I'm still young, I am now a teenager
I'm on my own
I need to be alone
I can't depend my life on anyone
if you leave, where will I be found?
I need to stand up and show the world
I need to live life and for now be on my own
I'm not a little girl that needs comfort
I'ma teeanger and I have my whole life to recover
sometimes I would need your love
but for now I need to be on my own.
