I was finally ok again
I was finally alright
I could finally see the light
Shining through the darkness

It took a single moment
News that no one wants to hear
That caused my heart to rip at the seems
And my cheeks to be stained with tears

Everything I worked so hard to build
Suddenly fell apart
And the cries I kept at bay
Suddenly tumbled out

A thousand memories we shared
Crossed through my mind
As my wall came crashing down
And my wounds reopened

The person I was at your funeral
Wasn't the person you had known before
Because the tears kept pouring down
And the bright smile was no more

I was ok again
I was doing alright
But now I'm back where I was before
And this time I'm struggling to find the light
