Believed that all moments of happiness had passed.
Thinking every happy moment was gone
Despite efforts, unable to reverse the situation.

Unchangeable consequences of her actions.

Similar sentiment of feeling lost in time through reflection.

And that she'd might still leave it a hero
Even through personal struggles, one can still leave a positive impact.
