Lyrics
Pieces of me lie broken on the floor
A shattered mirror and I can't see no more
The innocence you took away so pure
I don't think I can be that girl anymore
So many years I've carried round this pain
Longing just to see the sun again
Now I know I'm not the one to blame
I take back myself and throw away the shame
And I will sleep tonight
I will find peace tonight
Where nightmares won't find me
I've left them all behind me
And I will sleep tonight.
Every night I'm running in my dreams
I see your face in every man it seems
But I have learned that I'm the stronger one
And I'm all out of time and space to run
So I will sleep tonight
I will find peace tonight
Where nightmares won't find me
I've left them all behind me
And I will sleep tonight
I will sleep tonight.
