I have to be strong

I've got to be strong,
to never be wrong.
I need to protect my heart,
so I don't fall apart.

But silly me,
I just couldn't let love be.
Because I let you in,
and to fix it i don't know where to begin.

I love you,
that is true.
But I always get hurt,
I always feel like dirt.

I've got to be strong,
and I know the road is long.
I need to make it through,
and I need to get over you.

Tears still fill my eyes,
and I still remember all the lies.
I'll have to tape my heart together,
never open it to another.

I've got to be strong,
and forget our song.
And the best thing of all,
is that I pick myself up after my fall.

Because I know every time I fall,
I'll get back up and face it all.
Because I can't be wrong,
I have to be strong.
