My Thoughts Exactly

Penguin, 2018. A touch faded at extremities with no jacket.

I'm strong. I can be tough. I've been broken. I'm opinionated.I'm a people-pleaser. I'm spoilt. I'm needy. I contradict myself.I try to do good. I want to do good. I'm impassioned. I'm observant.Most importantly, I tell the truth. And this is my story.
So, this is me. Lily Allen. I am a woman.I am a mother. I was a wife.I drink.I have taken drugs. I have loved and been let down. I am a success and a failure. I am a songwriter.I am a singer.I am all these things and more.
When women share their stories, loudly and clearly and honestly, things begin to change - for the better. This is my story.
