You have to hurt to heal...

I’m of a broken jigsaw puzzle,no picture to help you piece all the scattered parts of me. I’m not easy to figure, no quick calculations here dear, if you want to know my secrets, just ask. I won’t scratch, I won’t bite, I may lie here and there, I’m no angel, though sweet faced, Only human I make mistakes.

Tear me down as long as you’ll build me up better. Break the seal I’ve put in place. Don’t worry about hurting me, for you can do no worse than I have. You have to hurt to heal they say.

And I won’t question your intentions as long as you don’t question mine. And I won’t bleed if you don’t cut me. So try not to tattoo my fragile heart with pain.

I play tough to make it through the day. Avoid all the hurts in hopes they’ll fade away. But hiding only pulls me closer to myself So I'll be waiting, hero come save me.

Tear me down as long as you’ll build me up better. Break the seal I've put in place. Don’t worry about hurting me, You can do no worse than I have. You have to hurt to heal they say.

These are the lyrics to a song I wrote a while ago. I can't find the music for it anymore :( but figured I'd still share this with you guys. Thanks for reading!
