I'm not bulletproof yet
but I'm gonna be.
I have to rebuild
after what you did to me.
It's quite a long process
it's not easy even a bit.
But I'm doing this for me
I can't afford to quit.
There will come a day I'm sure
Your absence won't cut me like a knife.
Until then I'm learning a new way to live my life.
I gave it all to you before
but that won't work for me, not now.
I've decided to become someone
who's never backing down.
You should have been the one
to place a crown upon my head.
So I'm taking yours away from you
I'll give it to myself instead.
You always put yourself before us
I shouldn't want you to come back.
But today when I thought of you
a little piece of my heart cracked.
It hurt like hell but I don't care,
it's just one more reminder to beware
of the promises of men
and the words they cannot keep,
the words I do not want to hear,
words I cannot believe.
And it's all because of you,
and the wounds you left in me.
I'm not bulletproof quite yet
but I'll get there someday.
And the memories that haunt me
will simply fade away.
