Stronger Now

You came with smiles and gifts of sweet word
You came with lies and tainted whispers
My innocence you dragged across the floor
Now you look at me as you would upon a whore

(Chorus)
I learned me lesson once, I don't have to learn twice
You get stepped on once, it's a cure for life
You took my heart once, you'll not take it again
I'm stronger now, was weaker then
I'm stronger now, was weaker then

Your touch was soft but it burned my skin
Your kiss was sweet, bitter from within
Your grin was wide for it had to hide
Your black and blue nature, which I despise

(Chorus)
I learned me lesson once, I don't have to learn twice
You get stepped on once, it's a cure for life
You took my heart once, you'll not take it again
I'm stronger now, was weaker then
I'm stronger now, was weaker then

You taught me well the art of pain
Don't shed your tears - I know your game
What once you had now is lost
You were free with your anger, now suffer the cost!

You think I'm bad, well that's okay
You think you're good, but I refuse to play
I don't move back, I press on though
You can follow me home, but I won't follow you

(Chorus)
I learned me lesson once, I don't have to learn twice
You get stepped on once, it's a cure for life
You took my heart once, you'll not take it again
I'm stronger now, was weaker then
I'm stronger now, was weaker then
