She and I we had a deal that she would die
Before she ever chose to love another guy
She's still standing it was me who fell apart
But I'm fine
The dreams I had when I was young have gone away
I wake up older and I face another day
But somehow life goes on and gradually I see
That this is me
CHORUS
This is me and I'll be alright on my own
This is me and I can make my own way home
And as I walk across the world I know I'll see
This is me, this is me
I believed in all the things that I was told
And I was angry at the way the dice had rolled
But then I finally saw the best that I could be
And it was me
Now at last I see my life is on a shelf
It won't wait forever, I have to help myself
I'll take it with both hands and finally I'll see
That this is me
CHORUS
