over the times i created so many versions of myself
sometimes it's difficult to keep up

but now i can tell i'm getting better
although the many obstacles and up and downs
in spite of everything i've done to myself
i somehow manage to keep myself up

still, i get scared of the thought of going where people are
still, unkind words about me hurt
still, i often regret what i say and how i act

but i grow stronger every time
