No more being broken
there's duct tape
on my soul
but it still needs time
to heal

So they fixed me up right
and taught me what i need
to keep my bones together
to keep me on my feet

so i just need time to heal
and i'll be okay again
but i've got to do this on my own
with only my own hands

i'm happy here
they get me here
i laugh for real here

i share my words
and they're heard
forgive the things i can't undo
