Stephanie Blake - Born from the Ashes

My quieted voice is now screaming
The pain inside my heart is bleeding
My damaged body is healing
From the pain that you caused

I was immersed in your darkness
My eyes almost forgot how to see
I was crumpled on your mattress
And you were standing over me

My fragile body was a vessel
Use until thrown away
My mind was taken for granted
And I almost faded away

I once was your poor play thing
Smashed into a thousand shards
Now I am older and recovering
I am healing these old scars

I’m taking back my body
I’m taking back my soul
I’m here at last to prove
That I am in control
