Be Strong, Girl, Be Strong

The blanket of sorrow cloaks me.
Can I not be happy for long?
I hate to feel excited because I know
It never lasts. I waste my time worrying,
Then alone I am. I wish that I could fight it.
Be strong, girl, be strong!

He said goodbye today,
But only because I forced his hand.
She wanted to be my friend, she said.
But to her, I gave a cold heart.
Then alone once more, I stand on the pier.
Be strong, girl, be strong!

The waves crash around me.
Can I sink and disappear?
I step up on the ledge, alone.
My hands shake and my heart races.
Alone, I lean over. The salt burns my eyes.
Be strong, girl, be strong!

If I jump now, it will end.
At peace, I could finally be.
The wind brushes my hair against my cheek,
I flick it aside and my fingers are wet.
The tears continue as I stand on solid ground.
Be strong, girl, Be strong!
