Lyrics

I know you like me broken and broken I have been
The words are never spoken since you picked me up again
I begun believing that I could maybe be someone
You tell me I’m so broken so this might make you come un-done

I’m not so into sharing this secret I will keep
You go on thinking how I’ll fall apart if you would leave
It might have been true you saved me - i saved you too

But now I know I need to go
before I let you take the final piece of me to break
Then fall apart for you to say “I knew that you could never change”

But I don’t have to prove it to you
I don’t have to prove nothing to you
I’m not staying broken for you
Proving it to me is the least I can do

Tell me the story of when you found me black and blue
It seems so funny the lengths that you would go to
to keep insisting there’s nothing only darkness here
And in my weakness I’d be wishing that I could just disappear

You say you need me broken but something’s happening
I know I’m changing and I know this changes everything
And now I’m talking but I don’t think you’re listening

And now I know I need to go
before I let you take the final piece of me to break
And fall apart for you to say “I knew that you could never change”

But I don’t have to prove it to you
I don’t have to prove nothing to you
I’m not staying broken for you
Proving it to me is the least I can do
I can fix me, I can fix me
