I`m Still Here

<br>I found the pieces in my hand<br>They were always there<br>It just took some time for me to understand<br>You gave me words I just can`t say <br>So if nothing else <br>I`ll just hold on while you drift away <br>Cause everything you wanted me to hide <br>Is everything that makes me feel alive <br><br>The cities grow <br>The rivers flow <br>Where you are, I never know <br>But I`m still here <br>If you were right and I was wrong <br>Why are you the one who`s gone <br>And I`m still here <br>Still here <br><br>You`ve seen the ashes in my heart <br>You smile the widest <br>When I cry inside and my insides blow apart <br>I tried to wear another face <br>Just to make you proud <br>Just to make you put me in my place <br>But everything you wanted from me <br>Is everything that I could never be <br><br>The cities grow <br>The rivers flow <br>Where you are, I never know <br>But I`m still here <br>If you were right and I was wrong <br>Why are you the one who`s gone <br>And I`m still here <br><br>Maybe tonight <br>It`s gonna be alright <br>I will get better <br>Maybe today <br>It`s gonna be okay <br>I will remember <br><br>I held the pieces of my soul <br>I was shattered and I wanted you to come and make me whole <br>Then I saw you yesterday <br>But you didn`t notice <br>And you just walked away <br>Cause everything you wanted me to hide <br>Is everything that makes me feel alive <br><br>The cities grow <br>The rivers flow <br>Where you are, I never know <br>But I`m still here <br>If you were right and I was wrong <br>Why are you the one who`s gone <br>And I`m still here <br>The lights go out, the bridges burn <br>Once you`re gone, you can`t return <br>But I`m still here <br>Remember how you used to say I`d be the one to run away <br>But I`m still here
