I never thought that I have been through hell
Until I got out and turned around
Broken bottles scattered around the floor
Hidden feelings
Crude humor to conceal the pain, the hate, the anger
I never knew I survived life without them
Until I turned around
I never believed I survived myself
Until I turned around
I never saw myself this ahead
Until I saw the view from the mountains I climbed
I never envisioned myself at peace
Until I closed my eyes and no tears came out
I never thought I could
Until I did
