I’ve been up and I’ve been down
I gave it all in this old town
I know you tried to tear me down
But I’m still standing tall and proud
I swallowed pride and other things
I open wide and spread my wings
So this is what my true love brings
I dream too much and talk too loud
Is it so hard to see
All the beauty in me
Have I ever let you drown
You say I’m old and suck you dry
My time has come I need to die
Staying strong, I’m staying high
I’m mad as hell and you know why
There ain’t no way they’re takin’ me
Deconstructin’ breakin’ me
All your talk ain’t shakin’ me
Is it so hard to see
All the beauty in me
Have I ever let you drown
Is it so hard to see
All the beauty in me
Have I ever let you drown
Is it so hard to see
All the beauty in me
Have I ever let you drown
