Under Construction
It’s time to reconstruct myself completely
and this time I’ll build myself up whole
this time I’ll build myself up full.
I’ll tear down all the broken pieces
and walls that struggled to keep me together
This time I won’t have any missing pieces
this time I won’t have any mistakes
or faults in my structure
This time I won’t rush for it to all make sense
this time I’ll have patience for perfection
this time all my pieces will be brand new
and I’ll build myself taller than I’ve ever imagined
and stronger than I’ve ever pictured
this time I’ll build myself up without thinking of you
this time I won’t need your help on what to do
I’ll build myself up with an outside view
that way I’ll always remember the pleasant things
going on outside my walls
and inside I’ll be filled with my favorite things
surrounded by my favorite people
This time I won’t let anyone break me
or take control of what I have
So take caution up ahead
because there’s a girl reconstructing her head
watch your step
it’s quite a mess
but if you stay along enough
I’m sure you’ll witness something beautiful.
This time I’ll reconstruct myself completely
and this time I’ll build myself up whole
this time I’ll build myself up full.
