Stand Tall
Lost in the dark stumbling, knife in my back, its so sharp
Broken fragments of everything I knew sprawled around me, the memories tugging at my dying heart
Who knew that betrayal could cut so deep
That you could kill me further in my sleep
I walk a lonely road, you dragged me here and abandoned me
Not a single glance back as you walked away
Deep in my mind I wanted to beg you to stay
Tell you how I feel, show you that you hurt me the most of all
But I couldn't let myself fall apart, so I stood tall
And didn't shed a tear
I just watched you turn your back
And let you go.
