Who am I now?

You are a man so run away, I am a woman so I must stay.
I look through my window and ask myself “Who am I now?”
It really does seem that things are only getting worse,
And the helping hands only seem to coerce.
Where do you turn when all the paths seem wrong?
The life I once had is forever gone.
Time passes by without my consent; things just are not the same.
Where are you now and who are you with?
I’m not ready to be alone.
