2nd in the 'Believe It Or Not 2001' competition
I want to let go,
Just to be free.
So I am happy,
Like I want to be.
I want to overcome,
The pain that I feel.
I want to run,
‘till my heart can heal.
I want to forget,
The problems on my mind.
Just turn my back,
And forget what’s behind.
I want to shield,
My love away.
I want to ignore,
What my heart has to say.
I want to be me,
I don’t want to hide.
The person I really am,
I want to decide.
