You can’t hurt me anymore,
For I am invincible;
Away from you I am capable,
Capable to succeed and become free.

You can’t hurt me anymore,
For I have done what
Some find hard to grasp;
I found the strength to say
“Enough!” at last.

I’ve put you so far behind me--
I’m too far gone to be reached.
Only concentrating in what will be
So that I can believe.

Living in the present to prepare
For my future.
I’ve left the past all up to you
Because you can’t touch me at last.

You can’t hurt me anymore,
No more tale-tell bruises
To explain or the unbearable pain,
No more swells of purples and blues that used
To cover my face, only happiness
And breathable air upon which
I now embrace.

No, you can’t hurt me anymore,
You can’t touch me anymore,
Today I’m the conqueror because
I’ve left you back there
The day I walked out the door.
