The Fight In Me.

You left me again, not caring to hear the words I felt like screaming at you.
And I'll shut myself down, just to make you feel like you've accomplished something.
Constantly dimming myself down for your happiness and comfort.
Only so that you could feel powerful, but you could never tame my heart.
This will not break me or even leave me scarred.

I won't be like the promises and claims you made, I will not fade away from the world.
I know I mean something, so even without you, I am still here, breathing.
Sweetheart, you don't realize all of the fight that I have left in me.
The pure belief that I can overcome this that radiates through my veins.
And through the tears I shed for you, I still feel so alive.

You never would have been able to recognize the love I held for you.
But now, you'll never have to because the control is mine.
I will never let you make me feel like nothing again.
Because baby I am worth fighting for, worth loving.
And you just threw that away forever.
