invincible

I'm not invincible

You're just weaker than you think

You didn't strike a fatal blow

You saw me fall I hit the ground hard

But I got up ready for round two

 

I'm not invincible

I just learned to survive everything

To embrace every drop of blood

Saw the beauty in my bruises

The symphony of my bones cracking

And I still knew I would win

 

I'm not invincible

I built myself up on your defeat

Drank from your skull to celebrate my victory

Danced on your grave smashed the headstone

And then I walked away

 

I'm not invincible

I grew flowers in the graveyard

To make beauty from something evil

Like Persephone in the underworld

I deserve sunshine and flowers

Because life goes on after you
