this is me

New Found Glory

I am not a stranger to the dark
Hide away, they say
Cause we don t want your broken parts
I ve learned to be ashamed of all my scars
Run away, they say
No one ll love you as you are

But I won t let them break me down to dust
I know that there s a place for us
For we are glorious

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I m gonna send a flood, I m gonna drown them out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I m meant to be, this is me
Look out cause here I come
And I m marching on to the beat I drum
I m not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away cause today, I won t let the
Shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricade
And reaching for the sun
(We are warriors)
Yeah, that s what we ve become
(Yeah, that s what we ve become)

I Won t let them break me down to dust
I know that there s a place for us
For we are glorious

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I m gonna send a flood, I m gonna drown them out

I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I m meant to be, this is me
Look out cause here I come
And I m marching on to the beat I drum
I m not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

Oh-oh-oh-oh
This is me

And I know that I deserve your love
There s nothing I m not worthy of
Oh-oh-oh, oh

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I m gonna send a flood, I m gonna drown them out
This is brave, this is bruised
This is who I m meant to be, this is me

Look out cause here I come
(Look out cause here I come)
And I m marching on to the beat I drum
(Marching on, marching, marching on)
I m not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I m gonna send a flood, I m gonna drown them out
I m gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out
Oh-oh-oh, oh
This is me
