If Only

Today I woke up and knew who I was
but how'd I never know this before
I guess I was always rather oblivious
but I thought I knew me at my core

I saw myself as the world saw me
and inevitably I felt empty
Somehow I found a much better family
and at last have set myself free

I'm glad I now get to express who I am
yet I can't help but feel I've been robbed
I can finally be who I've always been
but of course I'll grieve the years that I lost

I never cared much about how I looked
because it'd never have been as I wanted
If I could go back I'd do whatever it took
but I know this wish can't be granted
