You'll Never Fade Away

You taught me how to breathe:
One breath at a time
This may be your last breath,
One breath at a time.

You taught me how to scream:
Let it out right now
Don’t breathe in,
Just let it out right now.

You taught me how to cry:
Silent where no one can hear you
No one cares about your pain,
Silent where no one can hear you.

You taught me how to hate:
A stone cold heart inside
Love hurts too much,
Use your stone cold heart inside.

You taught me how to be independent:
Only you can help yourself
No one really cares,
Only you can help yourself.

You taught me how to run:
Pump your arms faster
Your legs just keep your balance,
Pump your arms faster.

You taught me how to stand:
Feet planted on the floor
Body prepared for a punch,
Keep your feet planted on the floor.

You taught me how to fight:
Keep your head up girl
Use their energy,
Keep your head up girl.

You taught me how to endure pain:
Be a soldier or you’ll die
Focus on another thing,
Be a soldier or you’ll die.

You taught me how to live my life:
Never back down
Speak your mind
And stay alive.
