Lyrics

They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger But they don't tell you that it takes a little longer To pick yourself up off the bathroom floor When the one you loved walks out the door I spent three weeks in my sweatpants crying Convinced that a piece of me was dying But somewhere in the mess and the pain I found a part of me I'd lost again Every scar tells a story Every tear was not in vain I'm stronger in the broken Braver than before These cracks let the light in I'm not who I was anymore The fire didn't finish me It forged me in the flame I'm stronger in the broken And I'm not ashamed Now I look in the mirror and I see a fighter The load feels heavy but my soul feels lighter I'm not waiting for someone to complete me 'Cause I finally learned how to love me Every scar tells a story Every tear was not in vain I'm stronger in the broken Braver than before These cracks let the light in I'm not who I was anymore The fire didn't finish me It forged me in the flame I'm stronger in the broken And I'm not ashamed To anyone who's barely holding on Feels like the darkness won Let me tell you something, friend This is not where your story ends No, this is not where your story ends Get up, get up again You're stronger in the broken Braver than before These cracks let the light in You're not who you were anymore The fire didn't finish you It's forging you in the flame You're stronger in the broken So don't be ashamed We're stronger in the broken And we're not ashamed
