Met You
I was crumbling down without making a sound
about two steps from the edge of too far gone now
calling and crying and screaming out names
to only hear echoes and whispers full of shame
so lost in doubt trying to figure it out
but that was then, haven't fallen since
yes I've stumbled, but I'm stronger than I've been
That was before, long before, I met you
when I didn't have a hero, didn't even have a clue
thought the world was broken, it's been made new
I had lost sight of seeing in a different light
searching for a peace treaty for the wrong fight
but now it's all crystal clear, that you're here
and I pray you're not going anywhere
you're the best friend I'd never thought I'd have
my life has never been better, than since the day
I met you
I was falling apart mending my tattered heart
almost at wit's end but you give me strength again
laughing and smiling and for once I'm sincere
and I mean every word that I'm saying to you
this is now, and I believe it's true
though I falter, I will stay strong, be okay again
ohh... this is today, and today is brand new...
