Fragments Lyrics

I bite my tongue when I need to speak

These heavy words just drown in me

Memories of all that I've been through

Have chained my heart, kept it from you

I'm sorry for the scars you see

They tell the story I wish wasn't me

It's hard to breathe when shadows linger

Poisoned by a scorpion's stinger

I close my eyes, the pain won't fade

Choking on the things I wish I'd say

But I'm still here, in pieces, in fragments

Sorry for the way I've been damaged

Sorry for the silence, the moments I've lost

Trying to find myself, no matter the cost

Every time I fall, I stand up again

But each step forward drags the weight of when

And I've been haunted by what I can't undo

Afraid my truth would be too much for you

I can't hide what's carved in my soul

The broken pieces making me whole

But I'm still here, in pieces, in fragments

Not sorry now for how I've been damaged

I found my voice, I found my strength

Every wound, every tear, every length

I'm not ashamed of all that I've been

The cracks in me are where the light gets in

No longer hiding, no longer blind

I'm more than the pain I left behind

Now I'm here, in pieces, in fragments

Not sorry for the scars or the bandage

I'm finding love, I'm finding me

This is who I am, and who I'm meant to be
