I lived my life like a masochist Hearing my father say: Told you so, told you so Why can't you be like the other girls? I said: Oh, no, that's not me And I don't think that it'll ever be Thought I belong to a different tribe Walking alone, never satisfied, satisfied I tried to fit in, but it wasn't me I said: Oh, no, I want more That's not what I'm looking for! So I took the road less traveled by And I barely made it out alive Through the darkness, somehow, I survived Tough love, I knew it from the start Deep down in the depths Of my rebel heart I spent some time as a narcissist Hearing the others say: Look at you, look at you! Trying to be so provocative I said: Oh, yeah, that was me All the things I did just to be seen I've grown my past and I've shed my skin Letting it go, I'll start again, start again Never look back, it's a waste of time I said: Oh, yeah, this is me! And I'm right here where I wanna be I said: Hell, yeah! This is me Right where I'm supposed to be So I took the road less traveled by And I barely made it out alive Through darkness, somehow, I survived Tough love, I knew it from the start Deep down in my rebel heart So I took the road less traveled by And I barely made it out alive Through darkness, somehow, I survived Tough love, I knew it from the start Deep down in the depths Of my rebel heart
