about

present time

i feel like this one is pretty self explanatory. thank you for humoring me for this long. have a wonderful day

Lyrics:

lyrics

Sometimes I hurt but that's okay
I'll be fine, I will stand, I will lift my head up
Sometimes I feel like I'm alone and that's okay
I'll open up, I will breathe slowly, I will say your name

The needle pierces gently
I'll bite my lip and smile
Cause I know the patchwork will look lovely
My scars tell stories now, they no longer define me

I did this for me
I put myself first
For the first time in my life

Now to anyone who has ever put doubt in me;
I don’t care if it seems wrong to you
I've found something that makes me feel okay and it took 25 years to make it here
So god dammit even if I’m wrong
At least it feels alright like nothing else ever has before
At least I don’t wake up in the morning feeling like my life is a lie
At least I don’t toss and turn when I’m going to sleep being crushed under the weight of wasted time
A few years ago I wished for death every day but I didn’t feel I deserved even that
Now I’m standing naked in my bathroom, looking in the mirror crying cause I know I almost never got a chance to see this image staring back at me
She almost never had a chance to live and love and know the beauty of the world
Now I’m alive to be thankful for all the people who cherish me
My existence has a meaning now, and I couldn't care less if it seems right to you or not
My name is Miira and I'm going to be alright
I'm going to be alright
I'm going to be okay
I'm going to be fine
