The Part of Me You Saved

You broke my heart

But saved a part of me

I used to curse the morning

For showing me the truth

But time kept moving softly

Till pain sounded like you

Not every scar is cruel

Some teach the soul to breathe

There’s a part of me you saved

Even when you walked away

You left me with the wound

But you taught me how to stay

I lost the dream we made

But not the love it gave

I’m still holding on

To the part of me you saved

I don’t wear your shadow

Like a chain around my chest

I carry it like mercy

From a love I can’t regret

Some goodbyes don’t destroy us

They show what still remains

There’s a part of me you saved

Even when you walked away

You left me with the wound

But you taught me how to stay

I lost the dream we made

But not the love it gave

I’m still holding on

To the part of me you saved

You broke my heart

But saved a part of me
