Broken and Forgiven

[Verse 1]
She stood her ground on a dusty floor,
Said she wouldn’t take it anymore.
The echoes of lies ring in her ears,
The weight of his words, a flood of tears.
[Verse 2]
She said it was the last time she'd bend,
No more love to give, no more to spend.
The scars on her heart, they tell the tale,
Of promises broken and dreams set to sail.
[Chorus]
Forgiveness, oh, it’s been her creed,
But now it feels like a hollow need.
Making others happy, she always tried,
Yet the joy she gave just died inside.
[Verse 3]
He called her strong, then called her weak,
A twisted world with love so bleak.
She gave him her light, her song, her all,
Only to watch as he let it fall.
[Bridge]
The road ahead looks long and bare,
But she’ll stand tall; she’ll make it there.
Her voice, now steady, carries her through,
A melody of strength, pure and true.
[Chorus]
Forgiveness, oh, it’s been her creed,
But now it feels like a hollow need.
Making others happy, she always tried,
Yet the joy she gave just died inside.
