Thankyou to the harsh stomach wrenching words
Thankyou for the touch that gripped and hit
Thankyou for the pain that came to rip
Thankyou for the turning away
Thankyou for leaving me alone to shake and tremble to turn to pray
Thankyou for the comments to change
For all this - never be the same
It makes you stronger with each blow
Some may never leave, you know
But after it all you learn to breathe even if you feel like you're drowning

Thankyou to the harsh stomach wrenching words
Thankyou for the touch that gripped and hit
Thankyou for the pain that came to rip
Thankyou for the turning away
Thankyou for leaving me alone to shake and tremble to turn to pray
Thankyou for the comments to change
For all this - never be the same
It makes you stronger with each blow
Some may never leave, you know
But after it all you learn to breathe even if you feel like you're drowning
