When I Say It Out Loud, It All Falls Apart

Oh
What's left in this rubble?
Pieces of me
Questions unanswered
Haunt me in my sleep
You'll tell me that nothing's even there
But I still feel their shadows
Their haunting in lairs
As they call

Oh
I can still smell their walls
The yellow chipped paint
And the feeling so clear, but the memories faint
I'm afraid of the answers, but I'm scared of the doubt
As this emptiness eats me from the inside out

Here lies this rubble
Foundations of me
Pieces unwanted
Parts left unseen
And I spend my life running
Just to avoid the pain
But the truth is I'm empty
And that hurts just the same

But I said that I was brave
Really thought that I was brave

The same rubble holds pieces of me
Scattered like ashes, washed by the rain
Holding my healing, drenched in the pain
Broken with beauty, standing with grace
Now I know that I am brave
