I m Ok – Christina Aguilera (Letras)

Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never knew just where to turn for shelter from the storm
It hurts me to see the pain cross my mother s face
Everytime my father s fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon

(Chorus)
Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strenght is my mother for all the love she gave
And every morning that I wake I look back at yesterday

And I m OK

I often wonder why I carry all this guilt
When it s you that helped me put up all these walls I ve built
Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door
The echoes of a broken child screaming please no more
Daddy don t you understand the damage have done
For you it s just a memory but for me it still lives on

(Chorus)

It s not so easy to forget, all the marks you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And everyday afraid to come home in fear of what I might see next

Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strenght is my mother for all the love you gave
And every morning that I wake I look back at yesterday

And I m OK
