"Still I Rise"


Pain is the only thing I know 

As I break this window

Walking on the glass is the only time I feel

I never love

Unless it ends up with me wanting more

Standing in the middle of the waves

As they come crashing over me

You drag me in then you push me right back out

I’m underwater where no one can hear my bloody shouts

You never let me up for air you always push me further down

Hold me, just for now

Because I know you’re going to leave me anyhow

Maybe I’m not good enough

Or I just like it rough

Tell me what I’m doing wrong

So I can move on

When you’re gone

When I’m in somebody else's arms

So I don’t make the same mistake twice

Is it bad to be broken?

I’m tired of forcing doors open

Just tell me that you love me

Just hold me like your gonna lose me

Even if you don't mean it

I never love 

Unless it ends up with me wanting more

Standing in the middle of the waves

As they come crashing over me

You drag me in then you push me right back out

I’m underwater where no one can hear my bloody shouts

You never let me up for air you always push me further down

Drowning in my own despair

Every time you’re near

I feel like I’m gasping for air

No matter what I do

I’m pulled further into your sea

No matter how cold you are to me

I’m not gonna leave you

Stuck in your own sea

I want to love

But I always want more

Standing in the middle of your storm

As the waves crash over me

I’m tired of being pulled in

Only to be pushed right back out

But believe me

You won’t be the last one to leave.
