My Hero
Inspired by New Moon

I crashed
Broken to pieces
Shattered
Stabbed a thousand times
My mind's gone wild
I've gone numb
The world tried to penetrate me
But I stayed in my shell
My future was gray
My future was depression

I needed adrenaline
To keep the world from me
To keep them thinking I was okay
You started as a pawn
A mere disposable person
After I got what I needed
I would be gone.

What have I become?
What animal is this?

You grew on me
Penetrated my shell
You showed me true happiness
I was never fully healed
But you helped me

Pick up the pieces
Put them together like a puzzle
It was a million-piece puzzle
Mending them with more than tape
More than physical supplies
You healed me

You kept me sane
You protected me
You stayed with me through my sorrow
You carried me through my despair
How could I repay you?
How would I begin to return the favor?

You were my sunshine
My own sunshine
My best friend
