Yesterday I took a look at my self in the mirror
I did not recognize the woman standing there
The circles under the eyes and weight added to the thighs
It's all coming clear to me,
What was left of me, has all disappeared

(chorus)
Looking back..........
there has to be, a way out of this....
Feelings of despair, unwashed hair..I used to be,
Laughing and smiling......now I can't....

bills are piling....
don't you see? this is all left of me

I answered the phone today
and you ask how I'm doing
Should I tell you the truth?
Or can you handle it?
I have many emotion's running through my head
no one there to really listen, no one that cares

(chorus)

Looking back.....
I catch myself longing for the woman I use to be
The one that made you laugh
through all your misery's
But now I'm all out, of jokes and harmony
For this is all ...the woman that's left of me

I fumbled through some old photographs
The other day, when we first met
there were no tears then, and no fear of the end
How can you help me? when you simply don't understand
I feel I have no purpose, and there's no hope in the end

(chorus)

Looking back, I did feel a need to be fake
keep everyone else happy,this was my job
But the task became so hard, when I wore myself out
Now I'm looking back, and feeling like I was robbed
