Lyrics of 'Why Not Me' by Tasha Page Lockhart

When I look in the mirror, I see a girl
Beautifully broken, perfectly flawed
I don't even know how I made it this far
And I'm asking myself questions like
Why did I do it? Why did this happen to me?
Then I said: You can get through it, you just have to believe
What I do now, gotta make it all count

So why not me?
I'm the perfect person to go through the storm
It won't break me, it won't kill me, I'll move on
And then I'll come out even better than before
And I'll never see this place anymore
'Cause my faith is gettin' stronger every day
I'm removin' everything that's in my way
And the fact that I survived another day
Makes me say

Why not me?
Why not me?
Why, why, why?

One day I'm up, the next I'm down
Problems comin' faster than I can count
Who can I run to? No one to talk to
Can't somebody tell me what to do?
Why did I do it? Why did this happen to me
You can get through it, you just have to believe
What I do now, gotta make it all count

So why not me?
I'm the perfect person to go through the storm
It won't break me, it won't kill me, I'll move on
And then I'll come out even better than before
And I'll never see this place anymore
'Cause my faith is gettin' stronger every day
I'm removin' everything that's in my way
And the fact that I survived another day
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

This is my moment, there's no turnin' back
It took me a while, but I have no regrets
I've given my all, let go of the past
I'm not gonna break, and I won't be afraid
Oh, this is my moment, this is my time
Just move out my way, 'cause I'm not backin' down
Now that I realize who I am, I'm alive

So why not me?
I'm the perfect person to go through the storm
It won't break me, it won't kill me, I'll move on
And then I'll come out even better than before
And I'll never see this place anymore (more)
'Cause my faith is gettin' stronger every day (day)
I'm removin' everything that's in my way (my way)
And the fact that I survived another day
Makes me say

Why not me?
I'm the perfect person to go through the storm (storm)
It won't break me, it won't kill me, I'll move on (on)
Then I'll come out even better than before
And I'll never see this place anymore
'Cause my faith is gettin' stronger every day (day)
I'm removin' everything that's in my way (my way)
And the fact that I survived another day
Makes me say

Why not me?
Why, why, eh, why?
Why? Oh, why, why?
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh
Oh, ooh
Why?

I can make it
I can take it
I won't break
No, no, no, no, no
Oh ooh, oh ooh
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Why not me?
