Somewhere Deep
somewhere deep inside me, i know that she's still there
the girl with bruised arms trapped in her own despair
as time goes by i marvel that once thats all i chose to be
my life and identity consumed by a drug that was killing me
the depth of my life now reflects how hollow I had become
peircing moments of pleasure fade and you become numb
my sobriety is but one gift I have to thank God for
my son, my boyfriend, my family and so much more
I've learned from my mistakes, and am paying my dues
so much is at stake, I have so much to lose
my past is a still part of me but only a part
now i'm a girl with a peaceful and loving heart.
