What's left in this rubble, pieces of me
Questions unanswered, haunt me in my sleep
You'd used to tell me that nothing is even there
But still feel their shadows, they are haunting in layers as they go
I can still smell the walls, the yellow chipped paint
Endless feeling so clear, but the memory's faint
I'm afraid of the answers, but I'm scared of the doubt
As this emptiness eats me from the inside out
Here liеs this rubble, foundations of me
Piecеs unwanted, parts left unseen
And I spent my life running just to avoid the pain
But the truth is I'm empty, and it hurts just the same
But I said that I was brave
I really thought that I was brave
The same rubble holds pieces of me
Scattered like ashes, washed by the rain
Holding my healing, drenched in my pain
Broken with beauty, standing with grace
Now I know that I am brave
