Teach me to hold my head high
because years of negativity have pushed it down

Teach me to trust in life
because time has shown me such little reward

Teach me to believe in love
because my only true love was nothing more than a wish

Teach me to see
because my eyes have been closed for so long

Teach me to trust
because I have been used and taken for granted

Teach me direction
because I have truly lost my way

Of all these things that I wish to learn, I can offer you this in return...

Let me teach you me
and all of the things I have yet to become.
