Simple words broke me
Such a simple goodbye
With each letter my heart broke
With each word, I broke
Life spun out of control
All I saw was dark
My smile faded away
My soul drowned in its sorrow
Confusion and blame were my friends
I pick up the pieces, with flowing tears
Only to rise again
Only to fall again
Only to raise again
You’re a survivor they say
You're a pillar of strength they say
Enough of your banners please
I'm a girl who longs to cry
My world torn apart
Yet you won't let me cry
I gather the pieces and walk tall
I gather the pieces and walk tall
Leaving my soul behind
