Strong
Words leave scars,
Hearts never heal,
You look up to the stars,
Wishing you can't feel.
Friends turn away,
Relationships shatter,
Hearts led astray,
No one thinks it matters.
The girl with a broken heart,
Lays on the filthy ground,
Broken glass in shards,
Blood drops can be found.
Get up sweet angel,
You deserve more,
I know you are able,
Get up off the floor.
Hold your head high,
You are who you are,
Higher you will fly,
Fly away far.
Away from this world,
Away from the sorrow,
You are a pearl,
A destiny to follow.
From a grain of sand,
To a pearl like no other,
The world in your hands,
Not torn by sorrow nor lover,
You alone can be the best,
Never cry or lay it to rest,
Strong as the sea,
Wild as the wind,
Gentle as a breeze,
You don't need a prince.
Alone you are strong,
Along with your sisters,
Every woman is one,
We will not be sorrows
prisoners.
