To contend with me now Is to confront yourself There is no emotion that I fear Nothing can change what I am A human being I will be sad I will be in despair And I know that I will not fall apart The moments you avoid Are the ones that make me the strongest I can lose your love Know you are with someone else And my heart will be a forest consumed by fire But I am also the green grass that returns I know that now And it is because I love you like that That I can lose you and still survive Because though you are beauty I am the song written for you I am the overwhelming love you crave And I am stronger than you will ever know You cannot destroy me
