For I've Been Everything

For I've Been Everything

~Who have I loved that you couldn't have?~

Through the days
through the years
through the laughter
through the tears
from hardship to heartbreak
Love, pain, freedom and hate
Bruises, scars, and blood
A smile, a laugh, a hug.

For I was the only thing I ever believed in!
Always having the courage to let love in!
And I banged down Angels' doors to get in!
And I've fought past death to live again!

For I was one of the Lost
I was one of the Torn
I was one of the Broken
I was one of the Betrayed
I was one of the Abandoned
I was one of the Destroyed
I was one of the Damned
I was one of the Damaged
I was one of the Wrecked
I was one of the Sinned
I was one of the Shamed
I was one of the Ruined
I was one of the Regretful
I was one of the Rejected-
But I was also one of the Loved
I was one of the Rescued
I was one of the Saved
I was one of the Spiritual
I was one of the Memorable
I was one of the Magnificent
I was one of the Cherished
I was one of the Unforgettable
I was one of the Mystical
I was one of the Livers
I was one of the Givers
I was one of the Heroes
I was one of the Holy
I was one of the Souls that...
had been everything.

For I've given everything
Whenever i got pushed down
I stood up and pushed back
I fought death to get here
I've fought life to survive
Theres nothing i have done
That you wouldn't have!
And there no one i have loved
That you couldn't have!
Because I've loved so many
And I've given so much
And asked for nothing in return!
yet always yearning for something...

No matter the cold, hurt or burn
I couldn't have been stopped by anything
For I've fought and embraced it all,
And through the regret i accepted anything,
Because i let love in, I've been everything.

Even when i was afraid to feel
thinking if damaged, I'd never heal
I thought, better to let it kill me
Then to never experience it at all!

For I was the only I ever believed in!
I had the strength to never give in!
Always having the courage to let love in!
And I banged down Angels' doors to get in!
And I've fought past death to live again.

Yes...I've been rejected and rescued
I've been damaged and then renewed...
I've been heart-broken, then loved again
Because I had the courage to let love in.
