A whole new perspective

Its where i stand now
that's changed my life
I'm looking at the world
and it seems alright

No more regrets
No more tears
No more fighting
with forbidden fears

Here i can be exactly what i want
tired of living by something that I'm not

I'm still your friend
and i still hold you close
I've just learned to do my own thing
and to not be afraid of ghost

the ghost that haunt your heart
the ones that make you cry
bringing up the past
always afraid to be alone and die

Its hard to explain
why I've changed so much
but I'm glad I've finally realized
i can live without your touch

I'm on my own
where i can move forward or back
i can make my own decisions
and not wonder if its bad

I'm glad to see that we made it through
another tough fight
and the anger that flew

But where i am standing
is where it's best
not to close
but close enough that is set

So heres a thank you
and a hug for the journey
I'm always here for you
but it's my turn to see inside myself
And learn to be free
