I lived my life like a masochistHearing 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 meAnd I don't think that it'll ever be"
Thought I belong to a different tribeWalking alone, never satisfied, satisfiedI tried to fit in, but it wasn't meI said, "Oh, no, I want moreThat's not what I'm looking for!"
So I took the road less traveled byAnd I barely made it out aliveThrough the darkness, somehow, I survivedTough love, I knew it from the startDeep down in the depthsOf my rebel heart
I spent some time as a narcissistHearing the others say, "Look at you, look at you!"Trying to be so provocativeI said, "Oh, yeah, that was meAll the things I did just to be seen"
I've grown my past and I've shed my skinLetting it go, I'll start again, start againNever look back, it's a waste of timeI 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 byAnd I barely made it out aliveThrough darkness, somehow, I survivedTough love, I knew it from the startDeep down in my rebel heart
So I took the road less traveled byAnd I barely made it out aliveThrough darkness, somehow, I survivedTough love, I knew it from the startDeep down in the depthsOf my rebel heart
