Is where I feel safe I can hide from it all
Nothing can touch my heart I won’t fall
My life is flashing quickly before my eyes
It’s taken this long for me to become wise
Regrets I work hard not to have or to hold
Lessons I choose to admire as I grow old
Thank you for sharing your secrets in my ear
I’ve been holding my fondest memories very near
I always thought I could make my heart feel better
All it’s ever truly been is a broken delicate fracture
The pain I’ve worn has shown me what I need
At times it cries out as blood trickles and I bleed
When did all this time escape and pass me right by
Why do I continue to waste it and be made to cry
Because he left when I was merely a baby girl
Then again when she died leaving me in a whirl
The door has been open wide
Waiting for you to come on inside
Those who have walked through broke me more
No one else can have me as I begin to explore
Life is becoming what I make it up to be
The best thing I know is that I’m finally feeling free
