I've been crushed like paper
I've been washed like rain
I've been scared of sleeping
In case I wake up the same

I've been broken and battered
I've been lost in my home
I've been cryin' a river
I've been cold as a stone

But falling into you
It carries me far enough away
And everything you do
It lightens up my brighter side of day

I just hope that the wind
Doesn't blow you away
I've been left unattended
I've been thrown like a ball

I've been rolled with the punches
And I didn't feel a thing at all
I've been crossed by the wires
I've been blinded by the light

I've been burnt by the fire
I've been kept out of sight
