Story Behind The Song

I am a married woman and a stay at home mom. One day I was thinking about what if I really pushed myself out there and tried as hard as I could to pursue a music career. But as I continued to think about it I started thinking about my husband and how I work hard taking care of him and the kids, and how it seems almost impossible to do both. Selfishly, I began imagining what it would be like if I could just focus on me and my career, a day out of the role of house wife. I began to feel guilty for even feeling that way, but then another side of me just couldn't help but think about all I could accomplish. Of course i am in love with my family and wouldn't trade it for anything. But after a long day of laundry, crying children, cleaning house, changing diapers,and then husband asks "what's for dinner?"....it's liberating to sometimes imagine living the life of a diva!

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I don't really know what I want
If you really want the truth
See sometimes I want to conquer the world
And other times I just want you

(Chorus)
It's getting harder
The feeling's stronger
Can't take much longer
This couldn't be more wrong

(Verse 2)
Look in the mirror and I see two faces
One in love with me and one in love with you
Whoever said we only have one soul
'cause I think we really have a few

(Verse 3)
Please tell me it will all be fine
That it will work out in its own time
Guess for now I'll just walk in the dark
'cause right now I'm not ready for light
