I stitch together all my happy moments
In this lace so I never have to look
At the in betweens
I used my smile as a mask
So no one would ever have to ask, what happened?
How did I break?

I buried you

My hands were shaking the day I became brave
I roped back the layers
I faced all, all of my horrors
I found I am stronger
Stronger than the monsters
Stronger than the monsters

I walked away from the broken pieces of my life
That cut so violently deeply into me
Wearing all my scars like medals
Looking into your deadlights
No one will know how I broke

I buried you

My hands were shaking the day I became brave
I roped back the layers
I faced all, all of my horrors
I found I am stronger
Stronger than the monsters
Stronger than the monsters

My hands were shaking the day I became brave
