Lyrics
Where I Stand
Written by: Emily Madronich 2012 copyright
I've been running round searching down answers for most of my life
I've been questioned, been broken, been torn apart right to the spine
Got motives that seem out of reach and are caught in my mind
But my hardship is sailin' me straight to a clear blue sky
And there's not a single moment I would take out of my past
The hardest times make better ones last
And I am comfortable where I stand
And I thank my struggles that built me up to be all I can
Heartbreak and drama and worries have passed through my soul
The pain and regret peoples words have taken their toll
Hurtin' and bleedin' are not unfamiliar scenes
The trick isn't hidin' but letting your ruggedness be
I've got love at my disposal
Got friends who keep it real
The trick is how you let yourself feel
And I am comfortable where I stand
And I thank my struggles that built me up to be all I can
(Scat... Da da da da dum...)
I am stronger, all uncovered, nothing here to hide
I am comfortable where I stand
And I thank my struggles that built me up to be all I can
Ohh
I am comfortable where I stand
And I thank my struggles that built me up to be all I can
