Hit Rock Bottom

Verse

I was sinking in the silence

Smiles hiding all the pain

Clocked in with a heavy heart

Still they never knew my name

Hands were shaking at my desk

While they stabbed me out of sight

I was breaking every night

Still I showed up for the fight

Pre-chorus

I cried where no one listened

Bled where no one stayed

They called me weak, they missed it

I was stronger every day

Chorus

I hit rock bottom, learned to breathe there

Found my light in all the dark

You don’t see the cracks inside me

When you judge me from the start

You played games with my emotions

Thought I’d fall apart for good

Never judge a book by its cover

I survived when no one would

Verse

Promises behind my back

Truth dressed up in lies

They smiled right into my face

While I was losing sleep at night

I begged for just a little grace

But belief was hard to find

So I stitched myself together

With the pieces of my mind

Pre-chorus

I stayed when it was painful

Stood when I could fall

They never saw the strength in me

Till I rose above it all

Chorus

I hit rock bottom, learned to breathe there

Found my light in all the dark

You don’t see the cracks inside me

When you judge me from the start

You played games with my emotions

Thought I’d fall apart for good

Never judge a book by its cover

I survived when no one would

Bridge

Don’t play with hearts

You don’t know the cost

Some of us are breaking

While pretending we’re not lost

Chorus

I hit rock bottom, built a ladder

Out of everything you said

All the tears you never noticed

Turned me into who I am

You don’t get to doubt my power

After watching me endure

Never judge a book by its cover

I’m stronger than I was before

Outro

I’m still here

Still standing

Still becoming more
