via lucia - fire inside her

i hate that i wish it wasn't you who was hurting me
because the one who loves you most should be allowed to hurt you the hardest
and yet i hope that i can brush them off, the things you've said
and recover a stronger person, one with more fire inside her.

i think the bottom line is that i started the fight
and it's the same fight replayed over and over again.
what i need to do is forge a new response,
where my hurts will heal and i won't make a sound.

that way when i see you, you won't look like a monster
and i'll know you're the one who is human and weak.
that way when you see me, i won't look like a monster;
i'll just look like a girl who is fierce and unmoved.
