My mind used to be black, I was so use to abuse and hate, 

Day after day, it was the same never ending cycle. 

I locked myself in the dark room I  had built in my mind,

Not thinking that some day, I'd have the power to break free. 

I don't know how to explain it, but one day everything changed, 

And it wasn't my past that I wanted anymore; it was you.

You taught me how to break free from the hell I didn't deserve,

And I did, painting the black walls in my mind to grey. 

It wasn't good enough yet, nothing was good enough,

Until you made the move that I'd needed my whole life. 

An escape from feeling unwanted and lonely, 

An escape from myself, and myself only. 

My mind wasn't black; it wasn't grey, 

It had became the white walls from my dreams.

My chest stopped hurting, and I wasn't alone,

Instead, I had flowers growing between the cracks of every bone.

I didn't know what it was like to be happy with myself, 

Because for nearly two years I was nothing but another stupid girl.

That all changed when I met you,

For once I didn't have to compete to be something to someone. 

You already had a place waiting for me in your self built room,

But because of you, mine opened up and now I have room for two.

We can live in these white walls and not worry about a thing,

Because as long as you're by my side, nothing will ever change.
