So, I was done
I was pushed off the edge,
Thought I lost it all
No,
I knew i lost it all

When laying in bed
Night after night,
Tears,
They form ocean puddles on my floor
Thinking any contact,
Any "what's wrong?"
Or "Are you ok?"
Would send me back into shock,
Into tears

Turn out i proved myself wrong
I stayed strong
Blocking out the past,
Defeating hurt,
I defied myself.
