I`m Still Here — текст песни (Vertical Horizon)

I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time for me to understand
You gave me words I just can`t say
So if nothing else
I`ll just hold on while you drift away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow
The rivers flow
Where you are, I never know
But I`m still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who`s gone
And I`m still here
Still here

You`ve seen the ashes in my heart
You smile the widest
When I cry inside and my insides blow apart
I tried to wear another face
Just to make you proud
Just to make you put me in my place
But everything you wanted from me
Is everything that I could never be

The cities grow
The rivers flow
Where you are, I never know
But I`m still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who`s gone
And I`m still here

Maybe tonight
It`s gonna be alright
I will get better
Maybe today
It`s gonna be okay
I will remember

I held the pieces of my soul
I was shattered and I wanted you to come and make me whole
Then I saw you yesterday
But you didn`t notice
And you just walked away
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow
The rivers flow
Where you are, I never know
But I`m still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who`s gone
And I`m still here
The lights go out, the bridges burn
Once you`re gone, you can`t return
But I`m still here
Remember how you used to say I`d be the one to run away
But I`m still here
