Intro: I used to need someone… Now I am someone… Verse 1: I remember crying, wishing she stayed Now I see her in the choices I’ve made I hear her voice when I speak to them Like I became what I needed back then I tuck them in, kiss their heads Say the words that were never said “I love you, I’m right here, don’t fear” Even if I’m drowning in tears Chorus: I became her, I had no choice Now I’m the comfort, now I’m the voice I’m the shoulder when they break down I’m the one that’s always around Even when I’m falling apart I hold them close, I guard their hearts I lost myself along the way But I made sure they’ll be okay Verse 2: Every sacrifice I never show Every pain they’ll never know I hide the truth behind a smile Make their world feel safe a while I don’t regret the path I chose Even though nobody knows What it cost to stand this tall To be the one who takes it all Bridge (emotional peak): If love means losing who I was Then I’d do it just because They deserve a chance to shine Even if it dims my light Outro: I became her… So they wouldn’t have to hurt…
