You lay me down
My skin bare
You humiliate me
And shame me
You show me what it was like to be there
There in the beginning
When you were shamed
Burnt and scarred
When you were laid down
Cold and bare
You remember what it was like to be there
But I won't have it
You've pushed
And pushed
And now I'm down
My knees on the ground
I'm broken and bruised
Bleeding too
But I can get up
Raise to my feet
Raise higher
Higher than before
Higher than I've ever been before
Because I know what it was like to be there
Down there so low
Now I'm stronger
Now I can let go
