Verse 1: You saw me on the ground and wrote my final scene Bet everything that I would never get back up Locked every door, talked behind my name But falling doesn't kill a heart with roots that deep Pre-Chorus: Every scar became a map to bring me home Every closed door taught me how to knock What tried to break me only made me stone Chorus: You can say I'm broken, but I'm still standing You can say I lost it all, but I'm still here You rejected me, but that's when I found me When no one stayed, I stayed for me I know who I am when the world forgets I know where I'm from and where I'm gonna grow You can try to stop me, but I'm still standing Verse 2: Walked alone through empty hallways My name crossed off lists I never wanted anyway Traded all the applause for the truth, paid for it in cold But now the mirror doesn't lie when I smile Pre-Chorus: What was heavy now looks beautiful on skin What was an ending became where I begin I don't need you to accept me to live within Bridge: I'm not what you said when I was on the floor I'm not my failure, I'm not your rejection I'm what remained after the hurricane roared A solid house, a resurrection Chorus: You can say I'm broken, but I'm still standing You can say I lost it all, but I'm still here You threw me away, but I finally found me When love ran out, I had love for me I know who I am and you can't take it That's the voice that lifts me every time You can try to stop me, but I'm still standing Outro: If I fall again, I know how to rise If I'm left alone, I know how to stay A soul who knows itself will never fade away Still standing.
