Welcome to Gaia! ::

From Waiting For the Fairytale to Chasing the Dream
I have spent a large majority of my life
Staring into life's abyss
And I just stared at my reflection
Having chances being missed

Because of my own foolishness
I suffocated in my own self-absorbed rage
And it took too long to realize that
Life's answers aren't on the last page

I was a silly little girl
And now I am a silly teenager
When I look at my own reflection
All I see is a stranger

My reputation has been ruined
My innocence has been lost
My heart has been damaged
And I am paying the cost

But I dare not say I regret
Because I have made lessons out of my mistakes
And I would not be good
Without experiencing all the head and heart aches

We must fall in order to fortify
We must lose in order to yearn
We must break in order to better
We must suffer in order to learn

So now I no longer stare into the abyss
And wonder when destiny will work its wonder
I now run into the streets dancing
When the heavens choose to thunder

I no longer hold my breath
Because that breath could be my last one
I've always wanted to live for the chase
And now I finally will run
