Somewhere in my mind, I'm a badass ;)


I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines

What's fucked up when everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me

My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'til then I walk alone*

Cappies love the climb!

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!*

Living my truth

Can't nobody tell me how it's gonna be  
Nobody's gonna make a fool out of me
Baby you should know that I lead not follow

Oh you think that you know me  
That's why I'm leaving you lonely  
Cause baby you don't know a thing about me  
You don't know a thing about me*

Nothing sexier than a strong woman

 I hear your reasons why
Where did you sleep last night?
And was she worth it, was she worth it?

'Cos I'm strong enough

To live without you
Strong enough and I quit crying
Long enough now I'm strong enough
To know you gotta go*

Scars = healed wounds



We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish, you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish, you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there
As mine sure won't be shared*

You had your turn...now to what I deserve

Don’t treat me to the things of this world
I’m not that kind of girl
Your love is what I prefer, what I deserve
Is a man that makes me, then takes me
And delivers me to a destiny, to infinity and beyond
Pull me into your arms
Say I’m the one you want
If you don’t, you’ll be alone
And like a ghost I’ll be gone*

More than just a [pretty] face in the crowd

You better stand tall
When they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break
Baby, don't back down

It's my life
It's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive *

Never stuck

Answer To Yourself
By The Soft Pack

You gotta answer to yourself
You can't depend on anyone else
You gotta know where you stand
And what's in your hands
Yeah you gotta answer to yourself

You gotta write down what you know
You gotta make sure that it's known
Because they're coming along to see what you've done
And they're gonna claim it for their own

You got a rabbit in your hat
You got a few tricks up your sleeve
Don't get stuck in a rut
Or stuck in the same
You got exactly what you need

You got a talent don't you know?
You're more talented than you know
And you give it a shot
And give it the time
And be surprised how far it goes

But I think I'm gonna die
Before I see my time
But I think I'm gonna die
Try it anyway

You gotta answer to yourself
2 days a week outside yourself
You take an hour a day, an hour a day
And you don't respond to anyone else

You got a few things on your shelf
You got to look through for yourself
You gotta choose what to read
Choose what to believe
And you don't take it from anyone else

But I think I'm gonna die
Before I see my time
But I think I'm gonna die
Try it anyway

He blessed me to be this way


When I'm breaking down and I can't be found
As I start to get weak
'Cause no one knows me underneath these clothes
But I can fly, we can fly, oh

'Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am (yes she is)
Even when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman (yes she is) *

Broken Wing



And with a broken wing,
She still sings.
She keeps an eye on the sky.
With a broken wing,
She carries her dreams.
Man, you ought to see her fly.
