What am I worth?
Your harsh words make me stronger
Your cruel actions make me weaker
How small is your stone cold heart?
Will you ever give me a chance?
No matter how hard I try you won’t
I won’t change for you
And you won’t change for me
We are all beautiful
Your eyes see different
Mine see the same
If only your eyes could look past my face
And into my heart
