LYRICS
Gazing out the windows of the bus
Watching Maryland pass by
There was sky, and where there wasn’t,
there was the thought of us
Maryland passed, and so did I

Soft like wax, sharp as an axe
Both can’t be true in my world
New indentations cover my back
Goddamn it, I’m at least somebody’s strong girl,
mm, aren’t I?

You surprised me on the road, I didn’t catch
your distinct footfalls up the stage
I’ll admit that made the tour less of a drag
And like a child, or a fool, I hoped you’d stay

Revolving doors spit me out onto the street
Sling my bags over my shoulder and cry
Press my belly, pull the tab and just maybe
I’ll flash my teeth, the ache’s the best index for drive
In my mother’s words,
“Just drag your heels and don’t you draw a line, be strong, girl”
Strong girl

It’s to the death, or less than nothing
I’m a pendulum, I don’t know where I’ll land,
I just know that I can swing it, I’ll always swing it

Cause Goddamn it, fuck if I’m not everybody’s strong girl, mm
Ooh, strong girl
Who am I if I can’t be everybody’s strong girl?
Strong girl
Aren’t I?

Not even the eldest but as a youngest and left alone to carry everything, this hits too close to home

0:59 this part really broke me because despite all the strength she’s shown, she still needs the reassurance that she really is the strong girl. she needs to hear it from someone else that all of this strength is not just a facade

She literally dropped a tsunami of videos right after the Tsunami MV

Niki! From my opinion that this song explains about a grown up girl which she must be strong about her own life but didn’t get any validation that she is strong #cmiiw. We are all strong! We can pass everything through our life! Adult is hard, but knowing you don’t strong enough is way harder! Be strong for everyone!

This song hits differently when you hear it as an only child🥲
To all the only children out there, you're not alone. Stay strong girls!💪💖

Gazing out the windows of the bus
Watchin' Maryland pass by
There was sky, where there wasn't there was
A thought of us
Maryland passed and so did I
Soft like wax, sharp as an ax
Both can be true in my world
New indentations cover my back
Goddamnit, I'm at least somebody's strong girl, mm
Aren't I?
You surprised me on the road I didn't catch
Your distinct foot falls off the stage
I'll admit that made the tour less of a drag
And like a child or a fool, I hoped you'd stay
Revolving doors spit me out on to the street
Sling my bags over my shoulder and cry
Press my belly, pull the tab
And just maybe I'll flush
My teeth, the ache's the best index for
Drive, in my mother's words
Just drag your heels and don't you draw a line
Be strong, girl
Strong girl
It's to the death
Or less than nothing, I'm a
Pendulum, I don't know where I'll land
I just know that I can swing it, I'll always swing it
'Cause goddamnit, fuck, if I'm not everybody's
Strong girl, mm
Ah, strong girl
Who am I if I can't be everybody's strong girl? (Strong girl)
Strong girl (strong girl)
Aren't I?

halo niki, thank you for make this song, it really means a lot for me. The first time i heard this song when i was in a training for OSN, i was having a harsh, hard time at that moment, i feel like lost, stupid, and not able to do anything, but in other way i have to carry everything because osn is what i fight for, because so many people depends their hope on me. This song accompanied me during that time, but it really hit myself when i was in a bus that passed Tanjung Priok, my hometown, and listening this song all the way to the hotel where i was stayed . There's a question tin my mind, what if i didn't make it? What if i'm not the person?, but your songs healed my overthinking, and suddenly my heart calmed and i thought it's okay, my life isn't just revolving around osn, i;m strong, and nothing about osn can affect me and turns out, the next day, i didn't win osn, i didn't get the medals. It felt like a colossal loss and verybody tells me to be strong, to be move on, but still, there's a question in my mind, what if i'm not the strong girl that my father always told me about? Because right now, i don't know. Everyone wants me to be strong girl while i'm just to tired to be okay again in this time, i'm afraid if i cannot swing it or my landing will crashing down next time
