It's nothing new that I'm running on empty
I've been waiting around for far too long for someone or something to save me
So I'll take the long way home tonight
They tell me I should move on to better things
So disconnected and out of reach
Their opinions won't ever get to me
You'll never get to me

Look in the mirror, what's starring back at you?
A common misconception, or a reflection of the truth
You crave acceptance and you forget your roots
We know where we came from, we're bulletproof

So this is how it feels to be alive
I finally found out who I am
I've been shot down a thousand times
But I'll never forget how to stand
I'll take these broken bones and bring them new life
It's in my hands, It's always been in my hands

Somebody told me that no matter what time heals wounds
And every breath I take it's not for me, it's always for you
I won't let go of this I'll see this through
So take my broken bones and make them new

This is who I am
This is where I stand
So piece me back together
Take my broken bones, make them whole again
This is who I am and this is where I stand
