Until all cries for mercy
And yet it's not enough
And when nobodies looking
I cry to the heavens

I just want to be normal
There are days when everything's
Good
And then there are days…
When all is wrong
I feel my self teetering on the edge
Of absolutely nowhere
God!
Please…
Bring me back

That part of my life ended and after I had children, I was judged for their appearances and be...
