"Break The Silence" lyrics - KELLY CLARKSON

What gets me through this
What makes it worth it is the hope for a better day
What you don't notice
What you lost focus on is I'm not the type to break

Eight years of eggshell calloused feet
Nine lives spent working on this dream
Six feet under but breathing
One drink to celebrate my pain
Three drinks and I'm brand new again
One voice is all it takes and I won't stop

I take the hit, I feel the sting of another loss
But while I grieve I keep on trying 'cause it's just a matter of time
I see the light, even if it's mine I won't back down
I'm gonna show you till you see me, till you recognize this fire

What I am chasing
What I have faith in is that chance to test my wings
What you don't know is
What you lost focus on is I'm not going away

Eight years of sitting on the bench
Nine lives spent tangled in your web
Six feet under but breathing
One drink to celebrate my pain
Three drinks and I'm brand new again
One voice is all it takes and I won't stop

I take the hit, I feel the sting of another loss
But while I grieve I keep on trying 'cause it's just a matter of time
I see the light, even if it's mine I won't back down
I'm gonna show you till you see me, till you recognize this fire

So you keep on pushing and I keep on fighting
You try and break me as I break the silence

Picking myself off the ground, it stings
Trading comfort, souls for dreams
Is it what we're made to be?
Trying so hard to make you see
I don't need your hand, I got my own
There is no fear because it's gone
I'm not gonna cry no more
I'm gonna stand up like I've always done

Eight years of eggshell calloused feet
Nine lives spent working on this dream
Six feet under but breathing
I take the hit, I feel the sting of another loss
But while I grieve I keep on trying 'cause it's just a matter of time
I see the light, even if it's mine I won't back down
I'm gonna show you till you see me, till you recognize this fire

So you keep on pushing (you keep on pushing)
And I keep on fighting (and I keep on fighting)
You try and break me as I break the silence
So you keep on pushing (you keep on pushing)
And I keep on fighting (and I keep on fighting)
You try and break me as I break the silence
