This ain't new
Not to me
This ain't uncharted territory
Not to me
Got my eyes open wide
It ain't often this girl swallows her pride
Well, thanks for the ride
I gotta leave and live my life on my own
I don't need a man to face the unknown
It's time to slip on my highest heels and raise my head above
This back-breaking, heart-aching, forsaken love
I wanna make like this day never happened, oh, no
I wanna make like this pain I feel is gone
I'm gonna make myself strong
And move away from what's wrong
I'm gonna make like a nail
And press on
I'm gonna make like a nail
And press on
Is this over?
Is this done?
Is there some trophy thing I should have won?
The struggle's never done
Did I fall?
Did I hide?
Did I mean to cut off the woman inside
And hurt those by my side?
I need to face every fear I've ever been frightened of
And crush all obstacles, I must rise above
Even Oprah can't make over the mess I've become
It is up to me, there's no time to be
Living life deaf, blind and dumb
I cannot make like nothing bad ever happened
I cannot make like I didn't let things go wrong
I need to make the most of the time
I've got left on this Earth
I gotta make like a nail and press on
I gotta make like a nail and press on
Like a phoenix who rose from the ashes
Like Lazarus coming back from the grave
I rejoin the human race
With a passion and grace
And I'm proud to be the woman I am
Yes, I am
I wanna make like this day never happened
I wanna make like this day never happened
I wanna make like this day never happened
I wanna make like this day never happened
Tomorrow is a place where I want to belong
Tomorrow is a place where I want to belong
I will make like a nail
Please pray I don't fail
I will make like a nail
And press on
I will press on
