Song lyrics
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 
Hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face 
Every time 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 

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

I often wonder why I've carried 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 echo of a broken child screaming "please, no more"
Daddy don't you understand the damage you have done?
For you it's just a memory, but for me it still lives on 

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

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 there
 
Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same 
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid 
Strength is my mother for all the love you gave 
Every morning that I wake, I look back at yesterday 
And I'm okay
Mm
I'm okay

oh, i really agree with you guys you know. her voice does wavers slightly and it's ever so emotional. it's mainly about her dad abusing her i think and how she began to grow up into this world. i love te song anyway!

CHRISTINA AGULERIA Rocks! I feel so sorry for her that she had to live this way...No one should have to grow up like that...It's not right! But then again, what can one person do right?

Oh my god! so many crying smileys!!

I love the song but I also hate it because it always makes me cry...

did you know she had to lie down while recording this song, well that's what I heard(one never knows if things u hear are true...)

Anyways, I think she's brilliant and I wish her all the best! It may sound kinda funny but I feel really close to her even though I don't know her at all!

It's a really beautiful song with a very strong message....and it makes you think all the pain that remains in someone that had to deal with this kind of violence....

Yeah marymarymary you are right she does lie down when she was recording this song i saw a big thing about her on MTV it is pretty good she had to do it alot of times because she cried alot whilst recording it
it is a beautiful song.
and it is so sad how her dad bashed up her mother
my fav part is "Bruises Fade Father But the Pain Remains The Same, and i stil remember how yu kept me so, so afraid"
and
" The echo of a broken child screaming please no more, daddy dont you understand the damage you have done, for you its just a memory but for me it still lives on"

I totally agree with you all, this song is amazing and so emotional , it really makes you think about what some people have to go through in life . It really makes you feel sorry for her. The first time I heard it I iknew straight away it was about her dad, because I've heard how she went through a lot when she was younger . I love christina as well, I think she's a great role model to look up to because she's so strong willed and independent. If you go to her website at www.christinaaguilera.com it's amazing, all christina fans will love it.
