Strong when I’m broken

Saw the lights flash, everything changed,  
News spread like wildfire, left me feeling estranged.  
You were hurting, and I watched in despair,  
The weight of the world, but I had to be there.  

Tears of sorrow, but I had to stay tough,  
Fighting my feelings when it gets too rough.  
You turned your back, I’m lost in the storm,  
Holding it together when my heart feels torn.  

I’m strong when I’m broken, a shield in the night,  
But inside I’m crying, trying to find the light.  
Fury for the one who brought you this pain,  
Can’t stand to see you hurt, it drives me insane.  
You don’t want my love, and I don’t know why,  
But I’ll honor your wishes, though it makes me cry.  

Staying close to your family, pretending I’m fine,  
Facing all the questions, just biding my time.  
Friends turning to strangers, oh, what a cruel twist,  
The one who was driving, now I feel so conflicted.  

Time may heal wounds, but the scars stay so real,  
Can't find the courage to express how I feel.  
I just want you back, to laugh and confide,  
But I’ll stand in the shadows, with love deep inside.  

I’m strong when I’m broken, it’s a heavy disguise,  
Carrying this weight while I search for the skies.  
So here’s my promise, through the pain and the ache,  
I’ll be your strength, even when my heart shakes.  
We’ll find our way back, in the light of the dawn,  
Until then, dear friend, I’ll just carry on.
