When life falls apart Staring at the girl in the mirror All I see is fear and wonder……what ghastly horrors she’s been through Alas, she still stands even though she’s broken and bruised Her eyes a storybook for all to see Yet no one notices her, only me Her life is a joke, an open book She tries as much as she can to make every man hurt with her seductive looks She’s strayed far beyond who she was Even the God she once worshipped she’s afraid to crawl to and ask…. Forgiveness? She deserves no such thing Torture her, stone her, she deserves to feel Rip her heart out in front of her; she’s the one to blame The floor has fallen beneath her feet; she keeps running but where should she be? Don’t pity her or she will cling to you, independence? That’s what she says she has Yet she’s the most dependant, needy person you have ever met Do not pick her up just watch her fall She shouldn't be alive, no, not all She was nothing more than a mistake The people who love her have probably lost their minds What can she do to make all her problems go away? There’s a little voice that keeps telling her there’s only one way She sits night after night contemplating suicide Too afraid to let go, yet she holds on to a world of nothing, she’s got nothing, no one When life falls apart, all she does is stare Take the blade and cut yourself, you know you deserve to feel the flare Now she lies in a box, her soul to hell for giving up Do not think about her no, she deserves the eternity of torture she’s ****** herself to Just forget her; she was no more than a speck of dust You’d be wasting your tears if you cried over her too much She’s finally gone; I have rid myself of her I am no longer the girl that I used to fear She’s laid to rest, forgotten and dead With all this life I can but be glad, the almighty my king has removed all that dread I am stronger, wiser, more courageous than I ever thought I could be All thanks to the Glory of my God, I owe my victory Watch me move mountains, be in awe of what I achieve It’s because the God that loves me gave me that second to breathe I am a women destined to do great things Now step aside as my light shines as bright as the stars in the sky My life, a new world to open up my eyes Watch me fly above the star-filled skies, you can have it too all you have to do is try…

When Life falls apart
When life falls apart Staring at the girl in the mirror All I see is fear and wonder……what ghastly horrors she’s been through Alas, she still stands even though she’s broken and bruised Her eyes a storybook for all to see Yet no one notices her, only me Her life is a joke, an open book She tries as much as she can to make every man hurt with her seductive looks She’s strayed far beyond who she was Even the God she once worshipped she’s afraid to crawl to and ask….
