You've broken me real bad;
and rubbed me in the dirt.
Stomping over on my heart;
I thought I couldn't stand the hurt.
You've really pulled me down this time;
unlike the many times before.
It's hard to drag myself out of bed;
and out through the dusty door.
I've really, really been hurting;
but I've kept holding on real tight.
Now I don't even need your picture;
to get me through the night.
I've amazed myself above and beyond;
I no longer want you to kiss.
Minute my minute, day by day,
I know I can rise above this.
